Here I am in conversation with Dr. Ben Bikman (Worldrenowned ‘Fat Doctor’). A respected metabolic scientist and associate professor at Brigham Young University, Dr Bikman has used his knowledge of and frequent contributions to the latest nutritional and metabolic academia to formulate HLTH Code Complete Meal.

Honestly, I sometimes find it hard to think of what to eat. I am not a breakfast person and earlyon I’m neither hungry nor inspired to cook, so after my workout a complete shake is a great solution. I trust HLTH Code to have what I need and I would never promote any product unless I have used it and trust it completely.

Quotes from the interview:
"So insulin resistance is the most common health disorder in the world and yet most people have no inkling of what it is or why it's relevant"
"whether it's fatty liver disease or erectile disfunction or alzhiemer's disease, gout, arthritis, every one of these chronic diseases is either directly caused by insulin resistance or... is worsened because of insulin resistance."
"it is not a disease that is caused by a lack of a drug so why would putting a drug in the system cure this problem?" 12:40
"Insulin resistance is a disease of the diet. And so the food we eat, our diet is either the culprit or the cure." 12:53
"This is a diet problem and so it can be fixed with nothing more than changing the food we eat; what we ate and when we eat it, that's the key, it's not some pill, it's not some injection" 13:10
"Stop eating after dinner and for the rest of the evening may be sip on some club soda or ice water." 40:16
"it is easier to never take the first bite than it is to stop at four, five bites" 44:35
