Mikki catches up with returning guest Marty Kendall to dive into his latest research on data-driven fasting—now evolving into “glucose-guided eating.” Marty explains how using a simple glucometer can help people calibrate hunger, avoid overeating, and make smarter food choices without rigid calorie counting. They discuss what makes this approach effective, who benefits most, and why personal thresholds matter more than one-size-fits-all advice. The conversation also explores nuances around satiety, macronutrient balance, micronutrient density, and even the broader systems—like food costs and guidelines—that shape our eating. If you’re curious about practical, personalised strategies for improving blood sugar, weight, and long-term health, this episode is packed with insights.
