    The Criticism of Keto-CTA—and What the Data Actually Show – TFP #021 | Greg Mushen

    In this episode of The Feldman Protocol, Greg Mushen, a longtime technology and product leader turned independent health researcher, makes the case that disciplined thinking from Silicon Valley can meaningfully inform nutrition and metabolic health. The discussion also directly engages with debates raised by the Keto-CTA study, using it as a case example to examine data transparency, scientific criticism, and decision-making under uncertainty—alongside metabolic testing innovation, walking versus high-intensity exercise, protein prioritization, and Greg’s own body recomposition—through a skeptical, analytical lens. 🔥 This episode is sponsored by us -- Own Your Labs `http://ownyourlabs.com` -- private blood testing services. 🩸Over 300 blood tests 💰Extremely affordable ❤️ We love our customers (Yes, we are literally funding the entire podcast from our own company -- so if you want to show your support, keep getting your private blood testing through our service.

Dave sits down with Doug Reynolds, founder of Low Carb USA and president of the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners, as the guest makes the case for carbohydrate reduction in chronic disease, practitioner education gaps, cultural food traditions, patient-driven change, conference-based knowledge sharing, and why engineers often follow data over authority. 🔥 This episode is sponsored by us -- Own Your Labs `http://ownyourlabs.com` -- private blood testing services. 🩸Over 300 blood tests 💰Extremely affordable ❤️ We love our customers (Yes, we are literally funding the entire podcast from our own company -- so if you want to show your support, keep getting your private blood testing through our service.

    Cholesterol Debate: What Would Falsify the Lipid Hypothesis? – TFP #019 | Josh Wageman PhD

    In this episode of The Feldman Protocol, a provocative question anchors the conversation: how much of cardiovascular risk is about cholesterol itself versus the context it operates in? Guest **Josh Wageman, DPT, PA-C, PhD**—a clinical lipid specialist and researcher—makes the case for using metaphor, metabolic health, and imaging to think differently about risk. The discussion spans coronary calcium scoring, lipid particles, insulin and inflammation, endurance training extremes, neurodegeneration, and why communicating science clearly actually matters. 🔥 This episode is sponsored by us -- Own Your Labs `http://ownyourlabs.com` -- private blood testing services.🩸Over 300 blood tests💰Extremely affordable❤️ We love our customers(Yes, we are literally funding the entire podcast from our own company -- so if you want to show your support, keep getting your private blood testing through our service.
