The Peter Attia Drive

How did a stubborn case of insulin resistance connect Peter with Ronesh?

What is Ronesh’s clinical treatment focus for metabolic illnesses in South and East Asian patient populations?

What is the distinction between visceral fat and subcutaneous fat stores?

Are there shortcomings to using a body mass index (BMI) calculator for evaluating metabolic disease risk?

How does cortisol affect blood glucose variability?

What role does insulin play in elevated blood glucose as a symptom of metabolic syndrome?

What are the mechanistic explanations of insulin resistance?

What are the theories on the origins and evolutionary reasons for insulin resistance?

What is the inverse relationship between brown adipose tissue and insulin resistance?

How do vitamin D levels relate to hyperinsulinemia and other effects?

What is the evolutionary benefit of turning fructose into fat?

How does VO2 max relate to insulin resistance and familial metabolic health?

How can a zone 2 fitness test evaluate mitochondrial performance?

What are the benefits of exercise for long-term functional health?

What lifestyle changes can improve insulin resistance and other metabolic phenotypes?

Is PCOS a manifestation of insulin resistance?

What is the impact of stress on adiposity and Peter’s treatment regimen for overweight females resistant to typical nutritional approaches?

How can a culture of achievement lead to stress and health problems in children?

What is the negative impact of devices and social media on children?

How can you help yourself, your family, and your community without being an MD or PhD?
