Cardiologist Dr. Jaimela Dulaney spent years practicing plant-based nutrition before her own experience with insulin resistance, blood sugar swings, and endurance running led her to rethink what personalized nutrition can look like. In this episode, Dr. Bret Scher speaks with Dr. Dulaney about what changed her perspective, both personally and professionally. They cover: How CGMs helped reveal unexpected blood sugar patterns Why insulin resistance can show up even in active, normal-weight individuals How Dr. Dulaney thinks about LDL cholesterol in the context of metabolic health Why low-carb and ketogenic diets may help some people improve energy, recovery, and blood sugar stability Why there may not be one “best diet” for every patient This conversation highlights the importance of listening to patients, tracking meaningful lab trends, and staying open to new evidence when personal experience and clinical outcomes begin to tell a different story. 👉 Interested in learning more about metabolic health, cholesterol, and heart disease?
