98. The Low Insulin Lifestyle with Dr. Ali Chappell, PhD, MSc, RD
Manage episode 474805175 series 2680681
Dr. Ali Chappell is a Registered Dietitian with an MS and PhD in Nutrition and Reproductive Endocrinology.
After earning her doctorate, she completed a postdoctoral research fellowship funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to advance her work in nutrition, insulin resistance, and PCOS.
Her PhD doctorate examines the role of diet on reducing symptoms in PCOS, an insulin-resistant condition- the most common cause of infertility in women.
Our current medical paradigm is glucose-centric, but 90% of the population has insulin resistance, and most have normal glucose levels. Dr. Ali explains why we need to shift the focus from glucose to insulin and focus on a diet (or lifestyle rather) that lowers insulin, rather than just regulating blood glucose.
In 2021, Dr. Ali received a grant from the National Science Foundation to launch Lilli Health, which turned years of research into actionable solutions for patients. In this podcast, she discusses her research results and the science behind them.
