Australian sports medicine physician & Professor of Sport Medicine, Dr Peter Brukner, is today’s guest interview. Peter shares with us how the low-carb diet is sustainable for better long-term metabolic health for both elite athletes and recreationalist. He helps to explain why everything we were taught to believe about current dietary guidelines was wrong and the link of the high sugar diet to current epidemics of diseases such as obesity and diabetes. We then find out about low-carb, healthy fat benefits, the advantages and challenges of using fat for fuel and using the hybrid approach. We also go into discussing skin folds, recovery, cramping, sponsorships and more.

In BioHackers Lab: Health Show for How to Live Your Best Life, host Gary Kirwan guides conversations that move beyond generic wellness advice. This podcast operates on the principle that effective health strategies are deeply personal; what works for one person's gut, mind, or body might not work for another. Each episode delves into practical, often nuanced, approaches to customising your lifestyle, drawing on global perspectives from individuals pioneering interesting methods to improve health. Discussions naturally explore a wide spectrum, from the roles of specific diets and supplements to the integration of purposeful exercise and recovery techniques. The aim is to provide listeners with a diverse toolkit of ideas and experiences, empowering them to experiment and find what truly optimises their own unique system. Tuning into this podcast is an invitation to a continuous, personal experiment-a process of biohacking your way toward a more vibrant and resilient version of yourself. It’s about parsing the noise, understanding the underlying mechanisms of your wellbeing, and making incremental, sustainable changes that compound into a significantly better quality of life.
