About 88% of adults have a degree of insulin resistance, which is a silent contributor to chronic health conditions, including Alzheimer\u2019s, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. The condition is both pervasive and easy to miss, making it a critical health issue to address.

My guest today is Dr. Morgan Nolte, a board-certified clinical specialist in geriatric physical therapy and founder of Zivli, an online course and coaching program that helps adults reverse insulin resistance. We discuss the dangers of insulin resistance, its progression to type 2 diabetes, and its impact on longevity.

Dr. Morgan explains the importance of understanding insulin levels and the relevance of different blood tests. We also cover lifestyle and dietary changes crucial for reversing insulin resistance, and overrated fears surrounding dietary fats, meat, and cholesterol.
