The Healthy Pitmaster

The numbers are startling: 65.8% of diabetic men worldwide experience erectile dysfunction, with 62.9% prevalence in Africa. These findings, from a recent global study, highlight the hidden burden of ED and its strong connection to insulin resistance. Insulin resistance, the root cause of type 2 diabetes, leads to blood vessel damage, nerve dysfunction, and hormonal imbalance—all critical factors for erectile function. This isn’t just about confidence—it’s about overall health. The good news is that insulin resistance can be reversed. I’ve shared my journey of reversing type 2 diabetes in earlier posts, showing that it’s possible to take control. Let’s bring this conversation to the forefront. Addressing insulin resistance could significantly improve the quality of life for millions. Read the study here:

Happy Thanksgiving! ?A message from me, to you.

Thanksgiving is a time for reflection, family, and gratitude. For those unfamiliar, this American holiday focuses on celebrating the blessings in our lives, often shared around a meal with loved ones. I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to those of you who have trusted me with your health journey over the past few years. Trust is a precious gift, especially when it comes to something as sensitive as health. I value that deeply and am committed to continuing to earn it. This holiday, I am reflecting on the many lives I’ve been fortunate enough to connect with and support. Together, we’ve made strides toward better health, and I look forward to building on that in the year ahead. Happy Thanksgiving!

Over 140 years ago, Wilhelm Ebstein published dietary recommendations for managing obesity and gout that sound strikingly familiar today. His low-carb, high-fat approach aligns with modern science and the principles of the Keto diet. Watch to learn how his revolutionary ideas still impact health today.

?? Celebrating Wilhelm Ebstein’s Legacy ?? Today marks what would have been Wilhelm Ebstein’s 188th birthday. Known for identifying Ebstein’s anomaly, he also made groundbreaking contributions to dietary science. In 1882, Ebstein published "Die Fettleibigkeit (Corpulenz) und ihre Behandlung nach physiologischen Grunds?tzen," proposing a low-carb, high-fat approach to managing obesity. His advice was simple: reduce foods high in carbohydrates like bread and sugar, and instead focus on fats and moderate protein. This was one of the first to connect diet and weight management. Then in 1884, his book "Das Regimen bei der Gicht" recommended the same approach for managing gout symptoms—a revolutionary idea. Sound familiar? Today, science confirms Ebstein’s approach as similar to the Keto diet, showing benefits in managing weight, blood sugar, and metabolic health. Imagine having these insights 142 years ago! Ebstein’s early contributions remind us how forward-thinking ideas can shape health and nutrition.
