Why You Don't Want To Be A Fat Burner | Kyle Mamounis

In this episode, Ash sits down with Kyle Mamounis, PhD, to discuss the implications of low carbohydrate diets. They explore the body's ability to produce carbohydrates through gluconeogenesis, the potential consequences of low carb diets on metabolic health, and the roles of glucose, fats, and proteins in energy production.


Kyle Mamounis earned his PhD in nutritional science from Rutgers University in 2017 studying the effects of different types of fatty acids on obesity, glucose metabolism & hypothalamic inflammation
