Metabolic Wellbeing without the BS
Metabolic Wellbeing Without the BS is more than a podcast — it’s a growing global movement challenging outdated health narratives and empowering people to take control of their wellbeing.
Launched in March 2024, the podcast has now surpassed 80 episodes, achieved more than 8,000 downloads, reached listeners across 100+ countries and over 1,200 locations worldwide, and has proudly been nominated for the inaugural 2026 Scottish Podcast of the Year Awards.
Hosted with authenticity, curiosity, and a passion for meaningful change, each episode brings together world-leading experts, innovators, advocates, and everyday storytellers to explore why metabolic health truly matters. Blending real-life experiences with science-backed insights, the conversations challenge conventional thinking while inspiring listeners to ask better questions about health and longevity.
From insulin resistance and gut health to cancer conversations, migraines, mental clarity, sustainable weight management, and the future of preventative healthcare, Metabolic Wellbeing Without the BS creates a space for learning, questioning, and evolving — together.
Join the movement. Learn, listen, subscribe, and take action — because your health starts with YOU.
