And what if you've learned over time, you know, with Dr. Kabat-Mate's work and all the work that you're doing as you gather all this evidence and stories, how the patterns look like.
Kirkland NewmanGUEST
It's so interesting because I've been very lucky through my work to interact with people like Gabor Maté and Bessel van der Kolk and Stephen Porges, Dick Schwartz, Janina Fischer, Robert Lustig, Bob Browntree, Dale Bredesen, Dr. Amann, Daniel Amann.
Kirkland NewmanGUEST
And each has slightly their own angle, obviously.
Kirkland NewmanGUEST
And so from my perspective, it's been wonderful because I get to see all these different angles.
Kirkland NewmanGUEST
And so your developmental trauma sets you up for a life of health or disease, basically.
Kirkland NewmanGUEST
That's his argument.
Kirkland NewmanGUEST
If you talk to Robert Lustig, it's more about the processed foods and being bombarded with sort of sugar and inflammatory messages and dopamine addiction.
Kirkland NewmanGUEST
Same with Anna Lemke.
Urban A. KiernanHOST
even, will cause that insulin spike.
Urban A. KiernanHOST
Dr. Robert Lustig just posted on LinkedIn an article regarding fructose, not fructose, but erythritol, a reactive oxygen species in your mitochondria, because he's very big into all of that stuff.
Urban A. KiernanHOST
So you got all of these additional aspects of that's just beyond hidden carbohydrates.
Urban A. KiernanHOST
You got this hidden hijacking of your biochemical machinery.
PaulHOST
And you just made a video on a topic that has been dead for a decade on fructose and that's coming back around.
PaulHOST
Thanks, Robert Lustig.
PaulHOST
The one that that has become so huge to me right now is like everyone's jumping on the insulin carbohydrate obesity model.
PaulHOST
Don't ever eat a carbohydrate.
Joe MarlerGUEST

Arthur AgatstonGUEST
Actually, I said this, and I told this story in the last book, 100% true.
Arthur AgatstonGUEST
And I was reading Robert Lustig's book, The Hacking of the American Mind, where he talks about the addiction.
Arthur AgatstonGUEST
This is years ago now.
Arthur AgatstonGUEST
And so...
Beth BubikHOST
It's a mindset shift.
Beth BubikHOST
And the thing is, is that if you read all the latest information out there right now, if you go on a lot of the podcast and you're reading Dr. Robert Lustig or Casey Means or any of the people out there, Dr. Eric Berg, just all the people out there, all the doctors that are talking about metabolic health.
Beth BubikHOST
they're actually saying that the percentage is like 90% of people have some type of a metabolic problem because our food is so bad and we're over consuming it.

Beth BubikHOST
I have to find that way, but it's going to take months to figure out.
Beth BubikHOST
And I do have some ideas, but it is going to take some time to figure that out.
Beth BubikHOST
I have been reading and studying Dr. Robert Lustig's work, as you know, particularly his book, Metabolical.
Beth BubikHOST
And one of the concepts he discusses is moral hazard.
Rajendra BagweGUEST
And then I have a habit of reading multiple different types of books.
Rajendra BagweGUEST
Metabolitical by Robert Lustig.
Rajendra BagweGUEST
It's a medicine book on obesity.
Rajendra BagweGUEST
I read that and it influenced me on my health and well-being.
Steve HughlettHOST
But by far, the majority of all the fructose you eat, it gets turned straight into triglycerides.
Steve HughlettHOST
And if you want to know more about fructose, there's a great YouTube video you can watch by Dr. Robert Lustig.
Steve HughlettHOST
It's called Sugar, The Bitter Truth.
Steve HughlettHOST
You've got to watch this and see how horrible fructose is for us.
Ken BerryHOST
Here is a question from Raymond.
Ken BerryHOST
Dr. Robert Lustig says we need fiber to feed the gut bacteria.
Ken BerryHOST
If not, it will feed on us.
Ken BerryHOST
Is he wrong? I eat beef, butter, bacon and eggs and I'm happy.
Susan DownsHOST
Well, concerning corn, in this country, I would not eat it because 95% of it has GMO.
Susan DownsHOST
And also, Robert Lustig told me that he had talked to Obama's cook because he's very hot on high fructose corn syrup, which is very damaging to our health.
Susan DownsHOST
It just It's a disaster, just like grapeseed oil, which is canola oil.
Susan DownsHOST
So Obama's cook told him, yeah, Obama knows very well about the issues with high fructose corn syrup, but because of the corn farmers, he can't do anything.
