insulin is a signal to the body that glucose is around for energy. And it's also a signal to the body that because there's so much glucose around, we don't need to use fat for energy. Glucose and fat are the two main ways that we produce energy in the body. And when that insulin's high, it blocks us from tapping in to fat burning. It says to the body, nope, you don't need to tap into fat burning.

We've got a bunch of glucose around. And so this is relevant to anyone who who is trying to lose weight or who has the excess belly fat because that insulin is a real block on helping us achieve those goals. And so for us to tap into our copious fats stores in our body, we need the insulin to be lower.

so by getting off that glucose roller coaster by eating foods that keep us more flat and stable throughout the day which is what we want for optimal health both in the short term and the long term we give our body a break from producing that insulin and that can have a real significant impact on our ability to um to lose weight to kind of get rid of that belly fat to tap into this alternate metabolic fuel source and to generate what we call metabolic

flexibility, which is this ability of the body to flip between using glucose when it's around and using fat when it's not around. And that state of being able to do both is a really healthy state. It's adaptive. But the average American with the vast majority of our calories coming from ultra processed foods, and I believe more than 70% of processed foods in the US have refined sugar in them.

And we've been told, of course, to eat six small meals a day. You are on, as an American, this up and down glucose roller coaster all day. And so you're really never giving your body this time in a low insulin state. So you really do have to be quite aware. think differently. I mean, the reality is, as an American adult, you're on a treadmill towards being overweight and chronic disease.

We were born and raised in Washington, D.C. And I thought being a good young conservative was supporting the farm industry or supporting the food industry, defending those industries. So I went to Stanford with Casey. She studied biology. I studied political science and economics and went on campaigns, but then was a lobbyist. Everyone bipartisan in D.C.

goes to work for the food and the farm industry. And on one morning, I'm working with the farm industry to literally steer money to the dean of Stanford Med School, who's a pain specialist, to be put on an NIH panel to say that opioids in 2011, that the issues around addiction were overblown. And we actually helped engineer an NIH panel to issue a report to say, opioid's okay, pain is a crisis.
