Welcome back to the Diet Doctor podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Brett Scher. Today I'm joined by

Trey Suntrip. Now, Trey is a little unique in that he is a PhD in physics. I can't say I've had any

physics PhDs on this podcast so far, but stick with me. So he got his PhD in physics at

University of Santa Barbara. Then he got into

translational science and entrepreneurship where he did a fellowship in that at Washington University

in St. Louis. And since then, he has been involved in different startups, different companies

to basically develop products, to bridge the gap between the science and translating it into things

that we can use that make our lives better.

Well, now he's working with a company and you can find more about him at my biosense.com

where they are working on ketone monitors.

And he was actually the lead author on a paper, which as you'll hear provided more than

two and a half times the data that already previously

existed correlating blood and breath meters. And so he's got a wealth of knowledge about

ketone monitoring in general and specifically about breath monitors. So we go into all that.

We talk about the basics about what ketones are, why we should measure them. And then we go in the details about the pluses and minuses and the intricacies of all that. We talk about the basics about what ketones are, why we should measure them,

and then we go in the details about the pluses and minuses and the intricacies of all the different

testing methodologies and talk about what's coming in the future, how it relates to the diet,

how it relates to fasting. So hopefully this is true statement, but everything you wanted to know

and more about ketone testing coming

up now with Trey Suntrup.

Well, Trey Suntrup, welcome to the Diet Dr. Podcast.

Hey, Brad. Thanks so much for having me.
