What’s the best way to optimize metabolic health? In this powerhouse episode of The Metabolic Link, we bring together leading experts including Dr. Ben Bikman, Dr. Richard Johnson, Dr. Jonathan Jun, Dr. Nick Norwitz, and Dave Feldman from our Optimizing Metabolic Health Symposium filmed at Metabolic Health Summit 2024 and hosted by Dr. Dominic D'Agostino.

In this discussion, you'll dive into some of the biggest questions in metabolism, including:

• What are the long-term effects of GLP-1 medications on fat, muscle, and metabolism?
• Does long-term dieting slow metabolism? And if so, can you reverse it?
• How do diet and fasting influence neuropathy and nerve function?
• Exercise and lipid profiles—what makes an athletic metabolism different?
• Do high-protein diets really harm the kidneys, or is it a myth?
• What is the role of the microbiome in weight gain, fat loss, and metabolic adaptation?

And much more! With insights from top scientists and researchers, this episode is packed with takeaways for anyone looking to improve their metabolic health.
