Jami Dulaney MD Wellness Podcast

Welcome!

And thank you for listening.

 

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Bret Scher. He is a board-certified cardiologist, lipidologist, and leading expert in therapeutic uses of metabolic therapies, including ketogenic diets. We discuss Dr. Scher’s journey from conventional cardiology to ketogenic medicine, the connection between insulin resistance and cardiovascular health, and why looking only at LDL cholesterol may not tell the whole story. We explore triglyceride-to-HDL ratios, fasting insulin, blood sugar, calcium scores, CT angiography, and the complex relationship between ketogenic diets and rising LDL. Finally, we discuss ketogenic therapy and mental health, metabolic flexibility, and what endurance athletes can learn about nutrition and avoiding the dreaded “bonk.”

Thanks as always for listening.

Welcome!

And thank you for listening.

In this episode, I discuss the importance of recognizing potentially serious heart symptoms in runners and endurance athletes, using the story of a young runner who died unexpectedly after experiencing repeated episodes of severe palpitations. We talk about why symptoms like sudden palpitations, chest pain, and unusually high heart rates should not simply be dismissed as dehydration or anxiety, why it's important to rule out serious cardiac conditions first, and how athletes can pay closer attention to their heart rate and warning signs during exercise.

I also share an update on my ketogenic diet and my experience tracking glucose and ketones, including how exercise, insulin, carbohydrate intake, and dietary fat can affect ketone levels, why endurance athletes may use ketones faster than they produce them, and why patience and personal data are important when transitioning to a ketogenic diet.

 

As always, thank you for listening.

Welcome!

And thank you for listening.

In this episode, I’m breaking down my experience completing the Badger 100, a 100-mile ultramarathon through Wisconsin, and spoiler alert: I made it! There were many difficulties like running through the rain, dealing with blisters and back pain, figuring out how to fuel myself while keeping carbs low, and what my continuous glucose monitor showed along the way. I’ll share some of the lessons I learned about endurance, recovery, metabolic health, and what works for me after more than 33 hours on the course.

I hope you enjoy the episode!

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tro Kalayjian, a physician who has dedicated his career to helping people understand obesity, food addiction, and metabolic health. Dr. Tro shares his own journey with obesity, including losing more than 150 pounds after years of struggling with weight and following conventional approaches to nutrition. We discuss insulin resistance, low carbohydrate nutrition, intermittent fasting, food addiction, binge eating, and the ways shame and guilt can make weight loss even more difficult. We also explore the complex relationship between ketogenic diets, cholesterol, and metabolic health, and why individualized care and continued research are so important.

Thanks as always for listening.

Welcome! And thank you for listening.

Diabetes has shaped my life long before I became a cardiologist. After watching multiple family members suffer from its complications, I was determined to avoid the same fate. Despite years of endurance training and following a whole food plant-based diet, I began noticing the signs of insulin resistance in my own body. In this episode, I share why I made the decision to transition to a low carbohydrate, high saturated fat approach and the lessons I've learned along the way.

This is just the beginning of my journey, and I'll be sharing my progress, setbacks, and what I learn as I work toward reversing insulin resistance and improving my metabolic health.

Thanks as always for listening.
