He initially thought type 2 diabetes was primarily genetic, but realised lifestyle factors like diet and exercise are crucial. Genetics don't seal one's fate, environmental factors like diet and exercise have a huge impact on health outcomes. Insulin resistance is linked to running out of space to store calories in muscle or fat cells. The "P.E. Diet" focuses on protein and energy balance rather than restricting carbs or fats. Humans obtain nutrients by consuming other living organisms, which get energy from plants via photosynthesis. A higher protein percentage of calories (20-33%) is more satiating and can help with weight loss compared to the modern 12.5% protein diet. The protein-to-non-protein energy ratio is one of the most important dietary factors. Foods with more protein, fibre, and water have higher "satiety per calorie" and can prevent overeating. Understanding satiety per calorie can help make better food choices for gaining or losing weight.00:00:00 - Free Metabolic Assessment and Optimizing Health00:01:41 - From Engineering to Medicine: A Winding Career Path00:04:59 - Diabetes, Diet, and Exercise: The Powerful Interplay00:10:12 - Exploring the PE Diet: Protein and Energy00:12:34 - The Role of Protein and Minerals in Plant and Animal Nutrition00:16:13 - The Power of Protein: Satiety and Calorie Control00:20:17 - Satiety Per Calorie: The Key to Healthy Eating00:23:57 - Exploring the Spectrum of Satiety per Calorie in Foods00:28:03 - Processed vs. Unprocessed Foods: Nuancing the Debate00:31:38 - Protein Bars vs. Whole Foods for Satiety00:36:04 - Explaining Volume Eating: Mechanical Distension and Satiating Low-Calorie Foods00:39:48 - Optimizing Protein Intake and Exercise for Weight Loss00:44:03 - The Power of Resistance Training for Sustainable Fat Loss00:46:18 - The Benefits of Building Lean Muscle Mass00:50:38 - Calisthenics: Bodyweight Training at Home00:52:38 - The Benefits of Bodyweight Exercises for Longevity00:55:36 - Finding the Right Fitness Balance00:58:48 - Exploring Ted Naiman's Work: Books, Brands, and Nutrition AppsSubscribe to the OYB email newsletter below and get your FREE Training & Nutrition Plan:https://mailchi.mp/1fe353b57501/level-up-7-day-challengeConnect with Dr. Ted Naiman:https://www.instagram.com/tednaimanhttps://x.com/tednaimanhttps://www.youtube.com/user/tednaimanConnect with Martin Silva: https://www.instagram.com/martinsilvafitness/https://www.tiktok.com/@martinsilvafitnesshttps://www.youtube.com/c/MartinSilvaWBFFPro
