The Dr. Chad Larson Podcast
The Dr. Chad Larson Podcast is a health and performance podcast for people who feel like they’re doing everything right — eating better, exercising, trying every diet — yet their body still won’t respond.
Hosted by Dr. Chad Larson, a dual-trained doctor with years of clinical experience in metabolic and hormonal health, this show focuses on fixing the root metabolic systems that control energy, fat storage, hormones, and long-term health.
Instead of chasing diets or hacks, each episode helps you:
*Restore insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility
*Understand why weight loss stalls and energy crashes happen
*Reset circadian and hormonal timing that drives hunger and fatigue
*Lower metabolic age and reduce disease risk
*Apply simple, science-based actions that actually work in real life
This podcast is for frustrated, overweight, or metabolically stuck adults who want clarity, control, and sustainable results — not another plan that fails.
You’re not broken.
Your metabolism is just out of sync.
This podcast shows you how to turn it back.

The Invisible Forces Making You Insulin Resistant
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You can eat well and still struggle with insulin resistance.
In this episode, we explore why.
Most conversations about metabolic health focus on food and willpower. But your metabolism is responding to far more than what’s on your plate.
Light exposure, prolonged sitting, chemical inputs, air quality, and sleep disruption all send powerful signals that shape insulin sensitivity, energy levels, and fat storage — often without you realizing it.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why insulin resistance isn’t just a food problem
- How light at night disrupts metabolic signaling
- Why sitting all day slows glucose disposal—even if you exercise
- How everyday chemicals act as endocrine disruptors
- Why “clean eating” sometimes isn’t enough
- Simple environment upgrades that support metabolic health
This is a reframe away from discipline and toward design.
Your metabolism isn’t broken.
It’s adaptive.
Listen to learn how your environment is training your biology — and how to change the signal.
