Hi Tom,
After my cancer diagnosis, I stopped looking at food in terms of calories and started looking at it in terms of biology.
Every meal creates a response in the body. Blood glucose and insulin change, your gut microbiome is affected, and you’re supplying your cells with fats, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and thousands of naturally occurring plant compounds.
That’s why diet became one of the five pillars of my approach and something I became extremely intentional about.
In today’s blog, What Are You Feeding Your Cells?, I break down:
• The research on ultra-processed foods and cancer risk
• Why cancer metabolism changed the way I thought about glucose
• Why I personally used therapeutic ketosis, and why I don’t recommend everyone copy me
