Jenny Mitich outlines a case that some individuals may continue to experience insulin resistance even when following a strict carnivore or zero-carb diet, using her husband’s data as a detailed example. She explores how metabolic history, visceral fat, stress, and fasting protocols may influence outcomes, and presents month-by-month results from bloodwork, DEXA scans, CGM readings, and weight changes. The talk frames long-duration water fasting, ultra-low-carb eating, and light movement as an experimental approach the couple used to investigate persistent metabolic dysfunction. Viewers get a narrative built around real measurements, a hypothesis about a potential “switch-flip” moment, and a set of takeaways on what the speaker suggests might help when typical low-carb strategies fall short.
