Live Beyond the Norms The Hidden Metabolic Mistake That Ages You Faster Than You Think With Dave Asprey
In this flashback episode, Chris Burres sits down with Dave Asprey to break down metabolic health, insulin resistance, and what actually drives longevity. We’re revisiting this conversation because science still holds up, and matters more than ever. Dave explains how metabolic dysfunction can develop years before standard blood tests show problems, and why insulin is often the earliest and most overlooked warning sign.
Chris and Dave also cover practical ways to improve metabolic flexibility, including fasting insulin testing, continuous glucose monitoring, and nutrition strategies that avoid rigid rules. They discuss keto, fasting, and intentional flex days, emphasizing personalization over perfection for long-term, sustainable health.
"You're not going to live longer if you hate your life." ~ Dave Asprey
