Episode notes

David Perry: When you were creating the eating plan and helping folks in the studies or just patients in general understand what their kind of goals were here. Were there any specific targets where you were like, we want you to eat this much? He says it's more important to be more positive about the world rather than saying what you shouldn't eat. Perry: The patients themselves are very good at finding out what they like. And then when we look at the Dart history, with their Dart history, we can say, well, can you model this?

To bring in the new year I thought it would be good to take a moment and consolidate some of the memorable moments, and key takeaways, from 2022.

In Episode #241, part 1 of a 2 part year in review, we traverse how to think about nutrition, so we can better make sense of claims online, diet, and cardiometabolic health, how you can flip the switch on your microbiome so the trillions of gut bugs in your large intestine reward you with better health, and the benefits up for grabs through consuming our food over less hours - otherwise known as time restricted eating or fasting.
