Send us a textShort Summary: Heart health and the ketogenic diet, with expert insights from a cardiologist and researcher.About the guest: Matthew Budoff, MD, is a preventive cardiologist and professor of medicine at UCLA School of Medicine.Note: Podcast episodes are fully available to paid subscribers on the M&M Substack and everyone on YouTube. Partial versions are available elsewhere. Transcript and other information on Substack.Episode Summary: Dr. Matthew Budoff discusses cholesterol, heart disease, and his study on the ketogenic diet's impact on lean, metabolically healthy individuals with high LDL cholesterol. He explains LDL, HDL, and triglycerides, debunking myths about their direct link to heart disease, and emphasizes the importance of coronary calcium scans to assess plaque buildup. Budoff also covers statins, dietary cholesterol, and personalized heart health strategies.Key Takeaways:LDL cholesterol is not a definitive predictor of heart disease; plaque buildup, assessed via coronary calcium scans, is a better indicator.Lean metabolically healthy people on a ketogenic diet may have high LDL without increased plaque progression after one year.Coronary calcium scans, costing ~$100, are recommended for men around age 40 and women around 45-50 to evaluate heart disease risk.Statins effectively lower LDL and can reverse soft plaque, but may be overprescribed for those without plaque buildup.Dietary cholesterol has minimal impact on blood cholesterol, as the liver produces ~85% of it.Ketogenic diet can aid weight loss & diabetes control but may cause high LDL in some lean individuals, known as lean mass hyper-responders.Plaque progression depends more on existing plaque than LDL levels in metabolically healthy ketogenic diet followers.Heart health varies widely due to genetics and other unknown factors, underscoring the need for personalized assessments.Related episode:M&M #158: Ketosis & Ketogenic Diet: Brain & Mental Health, Metabolism, Diet & Exercise, Cancer, Diabetes | Dominic D'AgoSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, etc. at the M&M Substack Affiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

Critical Midlife Strategies to Prevent Age-Related Brain Decline: In this episode, Nutritionist Leyla Muedin “Weighs In” with a landmark study published in PNAS, highlighting the importance of a critical midlife window to prevent age-related brain decline. Conducted by scientists from Stony Brook University and other renowned institutions, the study reveals that brain aging follows a non-linear trajectory with key transition points starting as early as age 44. The research identifies neuronal insulin resistance and metabolic changes as primary drivers, suggesting dietary interventions like ketogenic diets during midlife can provide significant benefits. Leyla emphasizes the importance of early metabolic health monitoring and lifestyle changes to mitigate cognitive decline, addressing the growing concern of Alzheimer's and related neurodegenerative diseases.
Beatriz was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. It began at 16 when she heard a crack in her knee while playing tennis. By 23, her knee became severely swollen with synovial fluid, making walking difficult. After multiple knee scopes and a diagnosis of villonodular synovitis, she eventually saw a rheumatologist who diagnosed her with rheumatoid arthritis. She began treatment with sulfasalazine, prednisone, and later methotrexate, but her condition worsened. When her doctor recommended Humira, she refused, scared by the side effects. She always wondered why she couldn't live normally and was determined to find a way to recover her health. After two knee replacements, she tried various approaches—gluten-free diet, veganism, juicing—all with limited success. She then discovered the Wim Hof method and began challenging herself with ice baths. Following her second knee replacement, she started keto and joined a CrossFit gym with physiotherapy. She trained consistently despite the pain, building a supportive community. Her health improved significantly—she could run again, her elbows straightened, and she reduced her medications. After three years on keto, when some symptoms returned, she switched to a carnivore diet. Under medical supervision, her inflammatory markers decreased, and her symptoms almost disappeared. She now follows a lion diet (primarily ruminant meat) and has her blood markers under control. Beatriz is now a health coach, pursuing certification in SMHP and Carnivore nutrition, using her journey to help others with autoimmune conditions.

Send us a textOlaf Kock is working in the software business, currently in technical sales. As a self-described nerd, he found the ketogenic diet in 2012 through a podcast on software security out of pure chance and quickly started a one month trial of the mysterious condition called ketosis.This experiment has evolved through several flavors since then, but as far as Olaf is concerned, the experiment never ended, and he is still ketogenic to this day!Compared to many others on the ketogenic lifestyle, his health journey was rather unremarkable until 2024, when he discovered that he could indeed treat his long-standing nasty conditions of Diverticulosis and Diverticulitis with proper nutrition, which to him, evolved to mean that he needed to try carnivore and eliminate all plant-foods from his diet.This year, he tried his luck by bringing his experience into a Toastmasters Speech Contest, which consisted of an amazing seven-minute speech!

In this episode of Hart2Heart, host Dr. Mike Hart dissects the science of aging and how to slow it down by optimizing cellular health. He breaks down two key strategies: autophagy and senolysis. Autophagy, the body's process of clearing out damaged cells, can be activated through fasting, cold plunges, sauna therapy, and high-intensity interval training. Dr. Hart also shares key supplements that promote autophagy. Senolysis focuses on eliminating ‘zombie' cells, damaged cells, that contribute to aging and inflammation. Dr. Hart explains how this process can be enhanced through similar lifestyle strategies and specific supplements like fisetin and quercetin. Show Notes: (0:00) Welcome back to the Hart2Heart Podcast with Dr. Mike Hart (0:15) Dr. Hart introduces today's topic - How to slow againg (0:45) Understanding aging at the cellular level (2:30) Strategy #1: Autophagy - The body's self cleaning process (4:00) Optimal benefits of fasting (5:00) Behavioral factors to induce autophagy (7:00) Benefits of ketosis for anti-aging (9:15) Supplements to induce autophagy (21:30) Strategy #2: Senolysis - eliminating “zombie” cells (22:45) Behavioral factors for Senolysis (25:00) Benefits of sauna for aging (26:30) Benefits to cycle to clear our zombie cells (30:00) Closing thoughts Supplements/Resources Mentioned: Where to buy Supplements - iHerb Spermidine - Mimics fasting effects and promotes cellular regeneration. Berberine - Helps regulate blood sugar and may mimic Metformin's longevity benefits. Quercetin - An antioxidant that supports immune health and autophagy. Resveratrol - Found in red wine, linked to longevity and anti-aging benefits. Curcumin - Anti-inflammatory compound from turmeric; supports brain and joint health. EGCG (from Green Tea) - May boost autophagy but could impact testosterone levels. Boron - Reduces inflammation and increases free testosterone by lowering SHBG. Fisetin - A flavonoid that helps remove senescent (zombie) cells and reduces inflammation. --- Dr. Mike Hart is a Cannabis Physician and Lifestyle Strategist.

How much does your diet influence not just your physical health, but your mental well-being? Dr. Bret Scher, MD, is a self-described “low-carb” Cardiologist, Medical Director at the Baszucki Group and Host of the Metabolic Mind podcast. He joins the Futures Edge with Jim Iuorio and Bobby Iaccino to unpack the urgent issues surrounding metabolic health. They explore the profound impact of diet on both body and mind, the rising crisis of metabolic dysfunction, and how ketogenic diets could revolutionize health outcomes.Dr. Scher breaks down the science behind calorie quality, the misunderstood role of cholesterol, and why LDL alone isn't a reliable health marker. The conversation also tackles the influence of pharmaceutical companies on medical guidelines and highlights the growing mental health crisis among teenagers—potentially linked to poor metabolic health.With only 7% of Americans considered metabolically healthy, this discussion underscores the need for a fundamental shift in how we approach nutrition, exercise, and wellness.Takeaways:-Metabolic dysfunction is a significant economic issue.-Only 7% of Americans are metabolically healthy.-Ketogenic diets can improve mental health and addiction issues.-Insulin resistance is a key factor in metabolic health.-Acknowledging past dietary mistakes is essential for progress.-Ketosis can serve as an effective treatment for various disorders.-Calories are not equivalent; the source matters. A calorie is not just a calorie when it comes to human metabolism.-The lean mass hyper responder phenomenon indicates that high LDL can occur without heart disease risk.-Cholesterol levels alone do not determine heart disease risk; individual factors matter.-LDL is not the sole indicator of heart health; metabolic health is crucial.-Teenagers are experiencing a decline in mental health, which may be linked to metabolic dysfunction.-There is no age limit for starting a ketogenic diet, but monitoring is essential.Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Metabolic Health and Economics01:58 Dr. Bret Scher's Background and Approach06:05 Understanding Metabolic Health and Insulin Resistance12:07 The Impact of Diet on Mental Health17:55 Exploring Ketosis and Addiction23:55 The Role of Exercise and Thermogenesis28:00 Caloric Intake and Muscle Preservation30:17 The Complexity of Calories31:58 Understanding Lean Mass Hyper Responder33:56 The Role of Cholesterol in Heart Disease39:12 The Limitations of LDL as a Health Marker43:29 The Influence of Pharmaceutical Companies45:30 Navigating Ketosis and Mental Health50:25 Success Stories in Teen Mental Health54:06 Dietary Considerations for Young Children

Psychologist Maria Ruberto is back to talk about one of the most important parts of our day: sleep. Starting off with the biology of sleep, Maria takes us through how we get to sleep, what happens when we sleep, and why we desperately need to sleep for good health and longevity. With metaphors galore to make the science as relatable as possible, we discuss the role of melatonin, the impact of screens on our suprachiasmatic nucleus and whether it’s worth cutting your sleep short to exercise? In more practical terms, Maria shares what sleep hygiene actually looks like, and, to Hugh and Josh’s relief, how hormones released during parenthood act to buffer against sleep deprivation. So set your sleep alarms, get comfy, and tuck yourself in for a BIG episode!

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX Big warning from the FDA about medical alerts from smart phones. They're warning that they've received multiple reports of users missing or not hearing important medical alerts from their phones, leading to cases of dangerously low blood sugar and even death. But the FDA warns that certain phone settings, such as pausing notifications, may cause patients to miss critical updates. In other cases, connecting the phone to a new audio source, such as a car stereo, could change the volume of the alerts users are accustomed to hearing. They have some recommendations to help, mostly just confirming alarms are working before you need them.. and I'll link up the full story in the show notes. Reading between the lines here, it seems like the problem here may be the thousands of unregulated apps that make health claims – not just for people with diabetes. So it's a good idea to check the apps you're using and the companies that make them. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/health/patients-using-diabetes-apps-can-miss-critical-alerts-heres-how-to-make-sure-youre-getting-them/ XX What costs less during pregnancy? CGM or finger sticks? In the real word, a new study says CGM costs less… Okay, first keep in mind that the cost savings here wasn't about the glucose monitoring supplies, it was about a lower rate of neonatal ICU admissions. In a base-case analysis in which researchers assumed all women would use seven finger sticks per day as dictated by the American Diabetes Association's guidelines for diabetes management in pregnancy, CGM had a higher per-person cost than SMBG. However, in a real-world analysis in which women with a CGM used three finger sticks per day and those performing SMBG used five finger sticks daily, CGM was more cost-effective. In the real-world analysis, CGM users had a per-person cost of $2,747 for the CGM, $988 for finger sticks and $9,973 for neonatal ICU admissions. For SMBG, finger sticks cost $1,647 and neonatal ICU admission costs were $12,876. The reduction in neonatal ICU admission rates with CGM use led to a mean cost savings of $2,903 in the real-world analysis. “These findings justify paying for CGM devices in type 1 diabetes pregnancies, even in the U.S., which has an expensive health care system,” Polsky said future research should focus on the cost-effectiveness of automated insulin delivery systems in pregnancy. “Automated insulin delivery use has been shown to improve glycemic outcomes in type 1 diabetes pregnancies, but it is still unclear if it improves maternal or neonatal health outcomes and if it would be cost-beneficial,” Polsky said. https://www.healio.com/news/endocrinology/20250205/cgm-may-lead-to-lower-health-care-costs-for-pregnant-women-with-type-1-diabetes XX Couple of interesting comments from Medtronic at the recent JP Morgan Chase conference. The CEO says he company is “mainly a type 1 business, moving into type 2,” He says stated that their patch pumps program remains dynamic.. Medtronic expects its 800-series pump to come in at around half the size of the latest-generation 780G. The post says the company plans for a pivotal study in 2025. Potential features could include extended reservoirs and extended-wear sets, plus a brand-new Android/iOS app. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/medtronic-next-gen-insulin-pumps-coming/ XX Beta Bionics also says they're working on a tubeless patch that they plan to launch in 2027. The company reported the device has two parts. One reusable component holds the electronics that operate the device and motor. A second disposable part includes an adhesive patch, insulin reservoir, insertion device, and the cannula used to deliver insulin. Beta Bionics said the pump is planned for use in people with type 1 diabetes and later will expand its use for people with type 2. The company also reported it is continuing work on an AID system that would, in addition to using insulin to lower blood sugar, also contain glucagon to raise blood sugar. Research is being conducted into dual-hormone systems, but none are available yet for people with diabetes. https://diatribe.org/diabetes-technology/tech-watch-diabetes-tech-news XX New approval for the treatment of diabetic macular edema. Susvimo is the “first and only FDA-approved treatment shown to maintain vision in people with DME with fewer treatments than standard-of-care eye injections,” the release said. This is the second indication for Susvimo, which is also approved for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration. https://www.healio.com/news/ophthalmology/20250204/fda-approves-susvimo-for-diabetic-macular-edema XX How about this one… drinking ketones improves heart health, a new small-scale study from the University of Portsmouth has found. This is the first time people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have been given a drink with ketone esters - a supplement that is meant to plunge your system into ketosis - to monitor the effect on the heart. Ketosis is the metabolic state where your body is forced to burn fats instead of carbohydrates. but more research is needed because we only assessed participants on the day, which means we have no idea what the chronic impact of drinking ketones would be." The study was carried out after research showed The drug SGLT2i was used to lower glucose in patients with diabetes and longitudinal studies were showing that it was inadvertently protecting the heart. The hypothesis was that the drug induces ketosis and the heart was using ketones, which improved heart health, but the evidence for this was limited so our research set out to prove the connection." https://www.news-medical.net/news/20250205/Drinking-ketones-improves-heart-health-for-people-with-type-2-diabetes.aspx XX Another pump wants into the EU. Modular Medical looks to obtain a CE mark in the first quarter of 2026. The patch pump, MODD1, got FDA clearance last fall. The company says it will be available early this year.. but I haven't heard much about it since the approval. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/modular-medical-step-forward-ce-mark/ XX New CGM system with a reusable applicator and rechargeable wearable transmitter moves forward. Trinity Biotech announced new pre-pivotal clinical data. This company is based in Ireland and is looking for iCGM approval down the road.. hoping to file with the FDA in 2026. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/trinity-biotech-expects-submit-cgm-fda-2026/ XX Body-weight cycling (also known as yo-yo dieting) has been shown to significantly increase the risk of kidney disease in people with type 1 diabetes, regardless of body mass index (BMI) and other traditional risk factors. This is a new study published in the Endocrine Society's Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. Participants with greater weight fluctuations experienced a 40% decline in kidney health from baseline values https://www.news-medical.net/news/20250204/Yo-yo-dieting-found-to-harm-kidney-health-in-type-1-diabetes-patients.aspx XX Eli Lilly's profit doubled in the fourth quarter, propelled by its hot-selling diabetes and obesity treatments, and the drugmaker came out with a mostly better-than-expected 2025 forecast. Overall, Lilly's quarterly profit swelled to $4.41 billion. https://apnews.com/article/eli-lilly-fourth-quarter-mounjaro-zepbound-ca026922525a9e3abb1b75d329628bef XX Abbott starts a new campaign all about bias and misconceptions when it comes to diabetes. I'm excited that they seem to have worked here with the Behavioral Diabetes Institute. Nearly 70% believe there is stigma associated with their condition.1 Diabetes as a Punchline: 85% of people living with diabetes say they have seen inaccuracies about diabetes in the media, including on TV shows, movies, and social media, and 40% of people felt that diabetes is often used as the punchline of a joke.1 Abbott's new Above the Bias initiative aims to help others see the world from the perspective of someone living with diabetes. The initiative builds upon efforts by several diabetes organizations, patient advocacy groups, and experts that continue to work to reduce stigma about diabetes.3 People can learn more about Above the Bias and watch the film at AboveBias.com. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/abbotts-above-the-bias-film-reveals-misconceptions-can-impact-diabetes-care-302367723.html -- When you watch the Super Bowl this weekend, watch for Noah Grey. .he's the Kansas City Chiefs tight end who backs up Travis Kelce and he's lived with type 1 since age 18. Grey spoke to media this week about how he loves to interact with kids who have T1D and their shared love of fruit gummies to treat lows. (sound here) Grey has been an ambassador for Tandem Diabetes and has talked about how he unhooks the pump but keeps his Dexcom on for games. https://www.yahoo.com/news/noah-gray-talks-helping-kids-010013649.html https://www.newsobserver.com/sports/college/acc/duke/article299730324.html -- I want to take a moment to personally send my love and sympathy to the Gaskins family.
