Dr. Ted Naiman shares his journey from engineering to medicine, inspired by the role of diet and exercise in optimising health. He initially thought type 2 diabetes was primarily genetic, but realised lifestyle factors like diet and exercise are crucial. Genetics don't seal one's fate, environmental factors like diet and exercise have a huge impact on health outcomes. Insulin resistance is linked to running out of space to store calories in muscle or fat cells. The "P.E. Diet" focuses on protein and energy balance rather than restricting carbs or fats. Humans obtain nutrients by consuming other living organisms, which get energy from plants via photosynthesis. A higher protein percentage of calories (20-33%) is more satiating and can help with weight loss compared to the modern 12.5% protein diet. The protein-to-non-protein energy ratio is one of the most important dietary factors. Foods with more protein, fibre, and water have higher "satiety per calorie" and can prevent overeating. Understanding satiety per calorie can help make better food choices for gaining or losing weight.
