OM DENNE EPISODE
In this episode, we explore the fascinating role of fructose in our metabolism and how it might influence obesity through the “survival switch hypothesis.” Our guest, Dr. Richard Johnson from the Anschutz School of Medicine at the University of Colorado, joins us to discuss his insights on how fructose could be triggering significant changes in metabolism. Together, we dive into how these changes are implicated in obesity, insulin resistance, and other metabolic diseases. Join us for an enlightening conversation that could reshape the way we understand the impacts of fructose on health. Hope you enjoy the episode!
