- Dhru sat down with Dr. Richard Johnson to talk about his team’s discovery of the fructose-powered survival switch-a metabolic pathway that animals in nature turn on and off as needed, but that our modern diet has permanently fixed in the on position, becoming a fat switch-and how it has revolutionized the way we think about why we gain weight.
Dr. Richard Johnson is a Professor of Medicine at the University of Colorado in Denver and has been a practicing physician and clinical scientist for over 25 years. He is internationally recognized for his seminal work on the role of sugar and its component fructose, in obesity and diabetes. His work has also suggested a fundamental role for uric acid (which is generated during fructose metabolism) in metabolic syndrome.
Dr. Johnson is a prolific scientist with research that has been funded by the National Institute of Health since the 1980s. He is a member of the American Society for Clinical Investigation and has published over 700 papers, lectured in over 45 countries, and is a highly cited scientist. He previously authored The Sugar Fix with Timothy Gower in 2008, and The Fat Switch in 2012. His new book is entitled Nature Wants Us to Be Fat and was published on February 8, 2022. - Розваги

Dr. Johnson, your enthusiasm for your research is so infectious! I love how you tell the fascinating story of evolution and adaptation. Thank you for your commitment to your fascinating research.
This host loves to hear himself talk. Let the guest complete a thought!!!!!
Very valuable presentation by Dr. Johnson. However, interviewer interrupted too much throughout the interview.
Slow down Dhru. Let the doctor finish his thoughts.
My thoughts too, the content of this interview was excellent however it was drawn out by Dhru’s need to interrupt and paraphrase. Dr. Johnson explained everything clearly. I personally did not need Dhru to paraphrase the information.
Almost completely unwatcheable because of this. I persisted because I wanted to hear the doctor, he has such great info. Too many hosts try to compete with the experts they have on their show.
Avoid all processed foods , sugar, juices, and smoothies.
In other words ... eat Paleo or Mediterranean.
Google eat wild. .. to find local grass fed meat .
Exercise .
Great interview/discussion. As a follower I'm all in....and reposted to my FB page.
This was a must listen! So much info I’ll be rewatching! Ty!!!
Prof. Tim Noakes has a thing or two to say about exercise and unrestricted carbs... He was always running but got diabetes.
So does Mark Sisson. He was an ultra endurance runner, looked great on the outside, was on fitness magazine covers, and was falling apart on the inside. Had so much pain due to arthritis and had to look for a bathroom everywhere he went due to IBS.
Although the flow is a bit redundant, I received a lot of knowledges from this. Thank you!
If you have a propensity to form kidney stones, 500 mg. of Vitamin C twice a day could be a problem because of the in vivo conversion of ascorbate to oxalate. Ask me how I know…………
I got tricked with organic dark chocolate covered dried figs and organic dried pineapple slices bc I thought the fiber, enzymes and polyphenols were good for me. 😞
We're human beings
Consuming fruit or not depends on whether it's a good fit for each person. Does it encourage snacking and possibly replace a meal? Can it be moderated? Does it trigger binging or other behavior? Does it contribute to weight gain? Does it get you to your goal? Just because some fruits may be healthier doesn't mean they should be eaten? It depends. Eat with caution.
This is fascinating information! However I have a sincere question. How can for instance some people groups eat lots of white rice and still stay slim? Thanks for helping me to understand. I want to get a CGM and start making changes to lower starchy carbs and also make sure I’m eating whole fruit in moderation.
No one counts calories!and nobody should! Just count the carbs!
Johnson has great hair and skin. Is he au naturale or did he have work done? I just get the feeling he eats whatever he wants and looks great bc he’s happy.
❤❤❤
God, gave us fruit ripe in late summer. We are meant to eat it to put weight on us, to prepare us for winter. Just once a year. Now we have it year round???
I heard insulin is not triggered by fructose so is this also a benefit?
Fructos does trigger insulin, because it's percieved exactly the same way by the brain, and must be procesessed by the liver.
Fructose is half sucrose.
Animals only eat fruit once a year.
Zero vs moderation
You didn't have the balls to say it's not the saturated fat it's the sugar period, shame on you .
Advice is totally wrong, to get us hooked on drugs! Diabetes, etc!!!
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT Karol
This interview and discussion is actually about the personal responsibility we all have to manage our health.
Which advices specifically?
We are not related to Monkey’s. I’m out of here
I agree, however there are so many great bits of information that is still valid. Very worth listening too!!!
Turn on tv and watch 15 min of any reality show....
We definitely are related to monkeys...no doubt about it.
Agreed. The THEORY of evolution is wrong on so many levels.
We’re 100 percent related to monkeys study the rhesus factor
We are
