Author: Dr. Brian Lenzkes July 23, 2025 Duration: 1:02:32

Thank you for tuning in for another episode of Life's Best Medicine.

Doug Reynolds is the founder of LowCarbUSA®, a leading organization dedicated to promoting low-carb, ketogenic, and metabolic health through science-based education. A former endurance athlete and self-proclaimed "carb skeptic," Doug turned his personal health journey into a mission to help others reclaim their lives through nutrition.

One of his most impactful contributions to the fight for metabolic health is The LowCarbUSA® conference. Officially known as the Symposium for Metabolic Health, it is a premier scientific and clinical event hosted by LowCarbUSA® in collaboration with the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners (SMHP). Founded by Doug in 2016, it brings together world‑renowned researchers, healthcare professionals, and passionate individuals to explore the therapeutic benefits of carbohydrate restriction—and its role in combating insulin resistance, inflammation, hyperinsulinemia, type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular and neurological disorders.

The Symposium for Metabolic Health – San Diego 2025, hosted by LowCarbUSA® and the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners (SMHP), takes place August 14–17 at the Loews Coronado Bay Resort. This premier event brings together healthcare professionals, researchers, and health enthusiasts to explore cutting-edge science and clinical strategies focused on therapeutic carbohydrate reduction and metabolic health. Highlights include a full day dedicated to brain and neurological health, 28 CME credits, practical tools for improving patient outcomes, and unique networking opportunities—all set against the scenic backdrop of Coronado Bay, with both in-person and livestream options available.
