====================================================
Prepare to unravel the mysteries of sugar's impact on our health with none other than Dr. Richard Johnson, a leading expert who's spent a quarter-century at the frontier of metabolic research. In our riveting conversation, Dr. Johnson exposes how sugar, particularly fructose, is not just a sweet treat but a key player in the development of metabolic syndrome. His unexpected findings reveal how certain dietary sugars can actually lead to the internal production of fructose, even without direct consumption, potentially derailing our well-being.
Our discussion takes a surprising turn as we examine the ordinary elements of our diet that contribute to obesity. Learn about the startling connection between high glycemic carbs, salt, and their combined effect on weight gain and overeating. Dr. Johnson's insights on the importance of hydration will make you reevaluate every salty snack and underscore the substantial role proper water intake plays in metabolic health. His practical tips provide a roadmap to managing uric acid levels and sidestepping the health risks associated with today's sweet-centric diet.
Closing the episode, we reflect on the broader implications of our findings with Dr. Johnson's poetic musings on the allure and perils of sugar from his book. This poignant ending encapsulates our deep dive into the transformative power of lifestyle alterations and the hopeful prospect of emerging treatments in the battle against metabolic diseases and beyond. Whether you're looking to revamp your diet or simply gain a deeper understanding of the food you consume, this episode is an eye-opening journey through the science of sugar's intricate dance with our health.

Ha! I love being thirsty, it puts me into a bit of an altered state I have to force myself to drink water -thank you for bringing this issue to the public.
My uric acid level spiked up significantly after 14 days and 7 days water fasting: from about 300 to 723 range. It comes back to baseline of about 300 in between these prolonged fasts. I eat OMAD, and since January/24, I do structured fasting: 3-5 days water fast 1x/month. I don't have gout, and I feel great. About 70 y.o. with normal BMI, no chronic diseases, no meds. Any comments about these spikes after prolonged water fasts? Thx. Although my question relates to the state when I am not eating, It is super interesting to learn about dietary biochemistry: glucose-fructose-uric acid. Excellent inverview.! Thank you Dr. Richard Johnson and The Kick Sugar Coach.
Also, my LDL-Chol spikes up after each prolonged fast, but NMR shows that it is large pattern A. I am not sure if there is any connection to my Uric Acid spikes. Thx.
Salt from pickles caused me to gain weight. When I dropped the salt to as low as I could go, the weight also reduced quite rapidly.
I was a fat fee vegetarian for 23 years, and my weight just went to a level that was slowing me down. Then, I discovered the low-carb diet and added fats to my diet. I lost 10 kilos with no difficulty. I was never hungry, nor did I crave sugar.
The book he recommends - I couldn’t make out the name. Dr Permeyer’s book? That’s the best I can make it out. Please post the Doctor’s name and book. Thx!
Drop Acid by David Perlmutter
I had uric acid, and my knuckles were tender and swollen. My doctor told me to drink a lot of water to flush it out. It worked. I was a vegetarian, so I dont know what caused it.
People do not recognise thirst and tend to eat rather than drink.
Saturated fat is good fat. The studies showing it isn’t are dated; they were performed by intravenous saturated fat injection and in petri dish cell cultures. Consumed saturated fat is metabolized completely differently. See Dr. Bikman who performed rhe earlier studies that are still quoted to create misinformation.
