Summary

It's no secret that health and nutrition is a polarizing topic with experts frequently disagreeing on the best path and the best evidence. Dr. Spencer Nadolsky is a bit of an anomaly as he openly wants to explore low carb nutrition, low fat nutrition, multiple forms of exercise, and use it all to help his individual patients. He is board certified in family medicine, obesity medicine, and is about to start his preventive medicine fellowship, It's clear his mission is to help people improve their health and improve their lives, and he believes we don't have to agree on one way to do it. He also has a particular interest in lipids and how they apply to low carb lifestyles, and is spearheading an effort to learn as much as we can about the unique physiology of Lean Mass Hyper Responders. I hope you will appreciate his approach, his willingness to defy being in a specific "camp" of practice, and his goal of helping us all improve our health.

0:00.0	Welcome back to the Diet Doctor Podcast with Dr. Brett Schur.
0:06.0	Today I'm joined by Dr. Spencer Nodalski.
0:09.0	Dr. Nodalski is board certified in family medicine and obesity medicine,
0:13.0	but as you're here also has a great deal of experience and interest in lifestyle medicine.
0:20.0	He was a Division I wrestler.
0:22.6	He has spent a lot of time learning about exercise physiology
0:26.6	and wanting to take that knowledge
0:28.6	and help people improve their life and their health with lifestyle.
0:32.6	And he got a little flack for this, it sounds like, in his medical training,
0:35.6	which is really interesting and we'll get into that. But he also has specific interests in weight loss and in lipidology. And he's not the
0:42.9	typical low-carb person. In fact, he's frequently thought of as anti-low-carb. But as you'll hear
0:47.4	in our discussion today, he really has an open mind. And that's one of the reasons why I wanted him
0:52.1	on the show, because it's good to get different
0:54.2	perspectives. He's going to give you a different perspective on lipids than you hear in the low-carb
0:58.8	community. He's going to give you a different perspective about calories and insulin in the
1:04.1	carbohydrate model than you usually get in the low-carb circles. But he also has an open mind
1:09.6	and you realize there's a place for different treatments
1:13.0	and different tools.
1:14.2	And that's one of the things I hope you appreciate about him.
1:16.4	You may not agree with everything he says, but I hope you appreciate his approach.
1:20.1	And more importantly, he's interested in learning more and he wants to help foster more studies
1:25.5	so we can learn about LDL and hyper responders and is it
