Regenerative Health with Max Gulhane, MD 37. Sara Pugh: Why Circadian Rhythms are so Critical for Weight Loss and Metabolic Health
Sara Pugh, PhD and I discuss why diabetes and obesity is a problem of circadian disruption and artificial light, the holes in centralized advice to avoid the sun, why we should eat foods low in deuterium, and MUCH much more.
This is a must listen for any low-carb doctor or patient who is attempting to reverse metabolic disease or lose weight.
Sara Pugh is a post-doctoral PhD researcher in molecular biology turned biohacker and holistic health practitioner using circadian/quantum approach.
