In this episode of The Highest Levels, Emily and Joe are joined by Dr. Clyde Wilson!  Dr. Clyde is a nationally renowned expert on nutrition and metabolism and a lecturer at Stanford University.  In this episode, Dr. Clyde discusses his unique approach to nutrition and metabolism, emphasizing the importance of personalized strategies over traditional calorie models. The conversation covers key topics including the significance of nutrition timing in enhancing energy stability and performance, the impact of post-workout nutrient intake on muscle recovery, and the potential pitfalls of relying solely on calorie counts, especially in the context of eating disorders among athletes. Dr. Clyde shares practical insights, such as the role of slow-digesting carbohydrates and the effects of sweeteners on metabolic health, while encouraging listeners to maintain a flexible mindset towards evolving nutritional knowledge. The episode concludes with actionable recommendations for protecting lean tissue during weight loss efforts and reconsidering the use of artificial sweeteners, with a focus on the broader implications for individual health and performance.
