CHAPTER MARKERS: 🤷‍♀️ [0:00] Confusion about nutrition & diet 🩺 [18:32] The MASSIVE importance of metabolic health 🍕 [30:49] Fresh food vs. calories 💪 [54:11] Optimizing your metabolic health 🧘‍♀️ [1:22:48] Mindful eating ✅ [1:47:58] Understanding the root causes of symptoms DR. CASEY’S MIND-BLOWING QUOTES: "The vast majority of Americans in surveys are very confused about nutrition... Humans have experts, humans have pubmed, humans have the NIH, and yet humans are the only animal species with a chronic disease and obesity epidemic that should make you scratch your head." "If we really want to give ourselves the best chance to get full and give our body the nutrients it needs to have optimal cell biology, the best possible situation would be unprocessed fresh and local [food] from the farmer's market." "Overwhelming the body with omega six blocks our ability to convert plant based omega threes to the biologically active ones, EPN, DHAE." "A big reason why I avoid these oils is because they are destroying our farmland in the United States with essentially industrial agriculture, pesticide covered farmland." "There is science telling us that getting our metabolic health under great control and optimized is one of the best things we can do to help balance our sex hormones and set us up for fertility." "One of the reasons I eat omega three s in large quantities and really focus on that in my diet is because I want to have the substrates in my body to be able to manufacture chemical mediators that tell my immune cells to chill out after they've done their work." "We lose the conversation with our body, the conversation which is our cells, using the only language they know how, which is symptoms, to get our attention." "I think my mom, she was sort of a very, like, archetypal American patient where she was totally loyal and faithful to the healthcare system, but ultimately, she was totally let down by it." "We are a dynamic body that is constantly changing and we are constantly rebuilding the next version of ourselves."
