Today I’m joined by Dr. Latt Mansor, a leading voice in human metabolism and performance. With a PhD from Oxford and years of research on type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular health, and performance in extreme environments, Latt has a unique perspective on how our bodies work and how to help them thrive.
We get into the fundamentals of metabolic health, the latest research on ketones, and how his studies with the Department of Defense are shaping the future of performance science. He breaks down what everyday health optimization really looks like, from fueling strategies to improving insulin sensitivity, and explains why metabolism exists on a spectrum.
Topics Discussed:
→ What is metabolic health and how can you improve it?
→ How do ketones support energy and performance?
→ What are the signs of insulin resistance?
→ Can ketones help with inflammation and recovery?
→ How do you fuel for muscle gain and fat loss?
