Episode 128: Dr. Charlene Lichtash

We are happy to be joined on the show today by Dr. Charlene
Lichtash who is the co-author (along with Drs. Megan Ramos and
Jason Fung) of an amazing case report on diabetes reversal
published in the BMJ. In this episode, we discuss the potential
of fasting and a ketogenic diet practiced in conjunction to
reverse diabetes. In discussing this topic, we delve deeply into
the aforementioned case report as well as many relevant
individual test cases. What types of people benefit from a
marriage of keto and fasting? What types of people see benefits
from just fasting or from just eating a ketogenic diet? What is
the role of exercise in increasing insulin sensitivity? How does
psychology factor into a patient’s success? We discuss these
questions and more with Dr. Lichtash in today’s show.
