Are You Insulin Resistant? A Simple Calculation Can Tell You
Do you have insulin resistance—and would you even know it if you did? In this episode, Virta clinician and board-certified clinical lipidologist Dr. Forrest Estes joins the conversation to show how insulin resistance often hides in plain sight. Using a simple calculation from labs you’ve likely already had, Forrest breaks down what blood lipids really reveal about metabolic health—and why blood sugar alone doesn’t tell the full story. If you’re looking for practical, no-jargon insights you can actually use, this episode is for you.

Is Leptin Resistance The Reason You're Stuck?
Ever feel full but still driven to eat? Or like your body isn’t getting the message to stop?
In this episode, we break down leptin—the hormone that’s supposed to regulate hunger—and explore what happens when it stops working the way it should. From the science of leptin resistance to its role in binge eating disorder and modern treatments like GLP-1s, this conversation connects the biology to real-life behavior—and what you can actually do about it.

The Sweet Truth: Sugar Substitutes
Cutting back on sugar sounds simple… until you’re standing in front of a wall of “zero sugar” snacks, sodas, and sweeteners. Aspartame, sucralose, monk fruit, allulose—how do you know which ones actually support your health, and which ones just keep your sweet tooth alive?
In this episode, I’m joined by Franziska Spritzler, RD and Medical Science Liaison at Keto Mojo, to break down the *real* science behind sugar substitutes. We cover how they work, what the research says about cravings, metabolism, gut health, and disease risk—and whether these products are helpful tools or just clever marketing.
If you’re trying to cut back on sugar, you’ll want to hear this one.
