About Today's Guest:
Marty Kendall is an engineer revolutionizing nutrition using a data-driven, nutrient-first approach. His interest in nutrition began over twenty years ago to help his wife Monica gain control of her Type 1 Diabetes.  Since then, he’s developed a systematized approach to nutrition that has helped thousands of people lose weight, reverse insulin resistance, and reclaim their health.  This led him to explore the concept of nutrient density and its effect on blood sugar stabilization and overall health. Marty's background in engineering has allowed him to approach nutrition from a quantitative and data-driven perspective, focusing on providing the body with the right nutrients in the most efficient way possible. He shares his learnings at OptimisingNutrition.com and runs Data-Driven Fasting and the Macros and Micros masterclasses to guide people on their journey of nutritional optimisation.  

Episode Summary:

In this episode, Aimee interviews Marty Kendall about his journey into the world of nutrient density. Marty explains the concept of the personal fat threshold and how it relates to type 2 diabetes and metabolic disease, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing nutrient-dense foods and how they can satisfy our cravings and promote satiety. He also discusses how the food industry influences our food choices and the need to be mindful of processed foods. Throughout the conversation, Marty challenges the conventional beliefs and superstitions surrounding nutrition and encourages listeners to focus on providing their bodies with the nutrients they need to thrive.

Key Takeaways:

  • Nutrient density is key: Prioritizing foods that are rich in essential nutrients can help satisfy our cravings and promote satiety.
  • The personal fat threshold: Exceeding our personal fat threshold can lead to metabolic diseases like type 2 diabetes, as excess energy backs up into our bloodstream and vital organs.
  • Energy balance and nutrient density: It's not just about eating fewer calories; it's about providing our bodies with the right nutrients in the right amounts.
