267. Dr. Clay Moss: On Metabolic Health, Insulin Resistance, Peptides, & Sleep Hygiene

0:00I think a lot of people relate aesthetic health to metabolic health.

0:03You can go years and years and have chronic disease, even though you look good in the mirror.

0:06You talk about how the most dangerous drug right now is comfort.

0:10And the number one side effect of comfort is chronic disease.

0:13We live in a society where everything is becoming more comfortable to us, and yet we're getting sicker as a society, and I don't think that's a coincidence.

0:19When we talk about the basics to people about how impactful things like movement, stress management, community connection, and how food is medicine, they almost want to refute that because it seems like it's too easy.

0:32There's so many things that we're living with in this unnatural world nowadays that if we just kind of get back to our roots a little bit, we can fix things one by one.

0:39Can you talk a little bit about the importance of strength training muscle beyond just what we see in the mirror and why you think muscle is medicine?

0:47To me, muscle is the root of muscle.
