Today I’m sharing a conversation I recorded for the Endocrine Matters podcast with my friend, Dr. Arti Thangudu. In this episode, we dive deep into the science of nutrition and blood sugar control what actually moves the needle, what doesn’t, and how to cut through the confusion that surrounds this topic online.

We also talk through some of the most common misconceptions around blood sugar control, whether low carb or ketogenic diets are best, and more.

Whether you have been diagnosed with diabetes, are navigating prediabetes, or are concerned about reducing your risk in the future this conversation will give you clear, practical strategies you can start using right away.

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it with Dr. Thangudu

In this episode of The Nutrition Science Podcast, Dr. Adrian Chavez sits down with endocrinologist and direct care physician Dr. Art Thangudu to to a deep dive into what’s really wrong with the U.S. healthcare system and what patients can do about it.

Dr. Thangudu shares her journey from working in the traditional healthcare system in a high-volume insurance-based clinic to founding her own direct care endocrinology practice that provides patient centered care where she is able to spend time with her patients, build trust and provide better outcomes at a lower cost.

In this episode you will learn:

• Why today’s insurance-driven model leaves both doctors and patients frustrated
• How this system compromises quality care for profit
• Alternatives to the traditional healthcare model, including direct primary care
• How direct primary care cuts out the middlemen and lowers costs
• Real-world examples of how patients can better advocate for themselves
• The hidden incentives driving inflated medical prices and short visits
• Simple ways to find more personalized, transparent care

If you’ve ever felt rushed, overbilled, or ignored by the healthcare system, this episode will help you understand why and show you that there’s a better way forward.
