My guest today is professor Sarah Berry. She's a professor of nutritional sciences at King's college London and the chief scientist at Zoe. Sarah and I delve into a wide array of topics including: What ‘’precision nutrition’'' is How genetics affect metabolism The mechanistic processes that happen when we eat What exactly atherosclerosis is Arguments around the Carnivore diet, Apo B levels & LDL cholesterol If it's okay to have high LDL cholesterol if your Apo B levels are low Whether or not calories are the only important factor in weight loss Time restricted feeding If all calories are created equal The thermogenic effect of food Sarah's thoughts on pro protein culture Why there's much disagreement on protein recommendations and nutrition AND What Sarah would eat if she only had 10 foods to live off I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to interview professor Berry, as podcasters and content creators we love to hypothesise and speculate on things we haven't actually researched and Sarah clearly takes her work very seriously and sticks well within her lane of expertise. It's a little shorter than my usual episodes but I think there's a lot in here for us all to take away. I hope you enjoy my conversation with professor Sarah Berry.
