Dave Feldman and Alex Leaf dive into one of metabolism’s most debated markers — fasting insulin. Alex, a long-time nutrition researcher, argues that energy balance, not fasting insulin, ultimately drives fat loss. Dave pushes back, suggesting that chronically elevated insulin levels play a direct role in fat storage and metabolic dysfunction. The discussion centers around many aspects of metabolic health — insulin signaling, adipocyte capacity, or the energy deficit itself.
