In this episode, we look closely at the critical topics surrounding diabetes and metabolic syndrome with Dr. Avi Charlton, a seasoned GP with over 20 years of experience managing these conditions. Dr. Charlton takes us on a comprehensive journey through the nuances of diabetes, distinguishing between its various forms, and unravel the mysteries of metabolic syndrome—a condition closely tied to diabetes that often goes unnoticed.  Furthermore, Dr. Charlton sheds light on the serious complications of both conditions, from hidden cellular damage to life-altering issues like amputations and vision loss. She offers a fascinating exploration of how high insulin levels can affect mental health, delving into the potential link between diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, often dubbed "Type 3 diabetes."

From diet to medication, Dr. Charlton discusses actionable ways to manage and potentially reverse some of the damage caused by these conditions. This episode also covers cutting-edge topics such as the new class of diabetes drugs like Ozempic, weighing their benefits and drawbacks. Additionally, we introduce the potential of breathwork as a complementary approach to managing stress and improving overall health for those with diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

Whether you're a healthcare professional looking to expand your knowledge, someone living with diabetes or metabolic syndrome, or simply interested in optimising your health, this episode provides valuable, practical insights you can use in everyday life. From understanding the role of mitochondria in cellular health to actionable dietary advice, you'll gain a comprehensive understanding of these conditions and practical strategies for management and prevention.
