Episode 54: Life & Death with Iron
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2022031/open_sms">Send us a Text Message.</a></p><p>Most people with anemia or iron overload don’t think about their immune system but iron levels are very closely linked to inflammation in your body. Learn the details on the regulation of iron stores in the body and the importance of macrophages in iron cycling. Find out how iron impacts insulin sensitivity and metabolic health and what happens when iron is deposited in your brain. liver and other organs.<br/><br/>Note: There is a sound glitch at <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHWgiMLJiXU&t=1956s'>32:36</a> and I was saying "spinach is rich in oxalic acid".

Reviewing Dayspring and Attia
<p>Fuzzy science” abounds in the world, and even luminaries fall into its trap sometimes. This review clarifies the mis-explanations of important concepts in lipid science that were discussed in Peter Attia’s podcast. The interview with Dr. Thomas Dayspring resulted in a 7 hour series that promised a deep dive into cholesterol and lipoproteins. Lipid science is a complex and ever-evolving field. Understanding some of the basic tenets of the field helps us traverse more complicated topics. The intention of this review is to help clarify the important points Dr. Dayspring made and to open up the scope of the discussion by examining less considered aspects of cholesterol, lipoproteins and their functions. The deep dive into the topic by Drs. Attia and Dayspring was indeed much needed and appreciated and this review acts merely as supplementary commentary or footnotes to the discussion. Since Attia and Dayspring devoted an impressive 7 hours to their discussion, the 2 hour length in this episode respects the time and effort that went into their series by attending to their points in detail. Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
