Dispelling Myths and Agendas: The Pursuit of Scientific Truth in Nutrition & Metabolic Health

The conversation is shifting.

For decades, mainstream nutrition advice has been shaped by trends, selective data, and industry-driven agendas. Many people—perhaps even you—have followed the standard recommendations, only to find that they didn’t lead to better health. Despite widespread promotion of low-fat, high-carb diets, metabolic disorders like obesity, type 2 diabetes, and other chronic conditions (what we refer to as “the plagues of prosperity”) continue to rise at alarming rates:

Fortunately, a new era is emerging—one that prioritizes real science over outdated dogma.

Science Over Sensationalism

Recently, Dr. Ben Bikman had the opportunity to share evidence-based insights on three widely influential platforms, reaching millions of people eager to understand the real drivers of metabolic health. These conversations weren’t about pushing an agenda—they were about uncovering truth, questioning conventional wisdom, and bringing clarity to the confusion that so often surrounds nutrition.

We’re incredibly grateful for the hosts who facilitated these discussions, asking thoughtful questions and fostering meaningful dialogue:

Diary of a CEO with Steven Bartlett

With hundreds of thousands of views in just days, this conversation struck a chord. Dr. Bikman broke down the role of insulin, the dangers of ultra-processed foods, and why so many modern dietary recommendations fail to support long-term health.

Jordan B. Peterson

Known for his intellectual depth and willingness to challenge the status quo, Dr. Peterson hosted an insightful discussion on insulin resistance, the shortcomings of conventional dietary advice, and practical strategies to reclaim metabolic health.

The Tyna Moore Show

Dr. Moore’s commitment to evidence-based health discussions provided the perfect setting for an in-depth exploration of fat loss, fasting, and the latest research on long-term metabolic well-being.

Cutting Through the Noise

The movement toward truth is gaining momentum. And it’s long overdue.

Much of today’s nutritional guidance is built on correlation, not causation—epidemiological studies that make for compelling headlines but fail under rigorous scrutiny. When health advice is driven by attention-grabbing narratives rather than solid evidence, it’s easy for the truth to get lost.

That’s why Dr. Bikman’s work is grounded in mechanistic science. His goal is to help people navigate the complexity of metabolic health with clear, actionable insights rooted in real research—not hype.

If you’re tired of conflicting information, misleading claims, and advice that doesn’t deliver results, you’re not alone. The more we empower people with accurate knowledge about insulin resistance and its far-reaching effects, the closer we get to meaningful change.

The movement toward truth is gaining momentum. And it’s long overdue.
