In this episode, I enthusiastically interview Dr. Don Clum about overcoming dieting plateaus. He covers topics like ketogenic diets, insulin resistance, hidden ways we sabotage our weight loss, how insulin is a major factor in inflammation and illness, and meal frequency to name a few. This is a wonderful journey into the human body surrounding something we do regularly...eat.

I will do another interview with Dr. Clum on the subject of fasting and can’t wait to pick his brain on this subject. I do a lot of 72-hour fasts and look forward to his approach as he, actually, went 30 days at one point.

He is a Chiropractor, Nutritionist, and Metabolic Health Expert who works internationally, has lectured in many countries and worked as the Peak Performance Doctor for the Olympic Teams in Central America. His programs have reached hundreds of thousands of people globally.

In 2010 Dr. Clum and his wife started a fully integrated wellness center while also transitioning to a traditional pain management medical practice into a wellness center serving as the director of wellness & the onsite lab.

Dr. Clum’s programs for insulin resistance specifically focus on diabetes, diabetes prevention, metabolic syndrome, weight loss resistance, obesity, sleep, and cardiometabolic issues led him to join a population health company, ADURO Inc. serving 140 employers and over 1,200,000 employees. Dr. Clum designed and delivered the first alternative diabetes prevention program and out-performed the National Diabetes Prevention Program from the N.I.H. and C.D.C.

Today Dr. Clum's 100% virtual practice and programs teach how to reverse insulin resistance with "Functional Rotational Fasting," Advanced Metabolic Nutrition, Functional Fitness, Sleep Enhancement, and Stress Resilience.
