Metabolic Wellbeing without the BS
What does podcast success really look like?
In a world chasing viral hits and follower counts, success often hides in places less glamorous but far more meaningful—like the DM that says,
"That episode helped me rethink how I treat my body."
Since launching Metabolic Wellbeing Without the BS, we’ve:
✅ Hit 5,000+ downloads in just over a year
✅ Released weekly episodes without fail
✅ Welcomed brilliant guests who bring real stories, not filtered perfection
✅ Built a trusted space for conversations on insulin resistance, gut health, light exposure, burnout, postpartum care & more
✨ But numbers aside, here’s what really matters:
- People are listening—and changing.
- They’re reflecting, challenging norms, and asking better questions about health.
- They’re finding community in curiosity, and that’s powerful.
Special gratitude to every guest and listener who’s helped grow this ripple.
Because this isn’t just a podcast.
It’s a reminder: you don’t need more noise. You need more truth.

Episode 79 – Metabolic Wellbeing Without the BS
In this episode, I’m joined by Jane MacDonald to discuss the realities of living with Type 1 Diabetes and why the conversation around its management may need to evolve.
Jane has lived with Type 1 diabetes for over 26 years, having been diagnosed during her first pregnancy. With a scientific background as an audiologist and a strong family history of the condition, she followed conventional medical and dietary guidance for many years in pursuit of stable blood glucose control.
Seven years ago she discovered the work of Richard K. Bernstein and his “Law of Small Numbers” approach. By focusing on nutritional changes and smaller carbohydrate loads, Jane has since achieved blood glucose levels in the non-diabetic range while using around half the insulin she previously required.
In this conversation we explore:
• What Type 1 diabetes actually is
• Why nutrition plays a critical role in blood glucose control
• The many factors that impact insulin levels
• Why greater awareness and patient-centred care may be needed in diabetes management
Jane’s story is a powerful reminder that lived experience, evidence, and informed choice all have an important role in improving metabolic wellbeing.
Metabolic Wellbeing Without the BS is more than a podcast—it’s a growing global movement. Launched in March 2024, the show has already surpassed 80 episodes and reached listeners in over 100 countries and 1,100 locations, sparking meaningful conversations about why metabolic health truly matters.
Each episode brings together incredible guests, thought leaders, and everyday storytellers from around the world, blending real-life experiences with science-backed insights.
Featuring voices like Rob Lufkin, Dr. Malcolm Kendrick, Dominic D’Agostino, Dr Sarah Myhill, and Professor Thomas Seyfried, the podcast continues to challenge outdated health narratives and empower listeners to take control of their wellbeing.
From insulin resistance and gut health to mental clarity and sustainable weight management, this is a space for learning, questioning, and evolving—together.
