Summary

Dr. Latt Mansor is a researcher and global expert in metabolic health, with a PhD from Oxford in physiology, specializing in nutrition, ketones, and human performance. He joins the show to break down what really drives metabolism, energy, and weight loss. We dive into common myths, the truth about fast vs. slow metabolism, and what to do when you hit a weight loss plateau. Dr. Mansor explains how hormones, stress, and nutrient deficiencies affect fat burning and wellbeing, how carb cycling can work to your advantage, and why ketones may be a powerful tool—not only for metabolism, but also for anxiety, sleep, and sustained energy. We also compare ketones to caffeine and GLP-1s, giving you science-backed insights to cut through the noise and optimize your health.
