Jami Dulaney MD Wellness Podcast: Are We Looking at Heart Health All Wrong? | With Dr. Bret Scher
Episode 448
Friday, 4 September, 2026
Welcome! And thank you for listening. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Bret Scher. He is a board-certified cardiologist, lipidologist, and leading expert in therapeutic uses of metabolic therapies, including ketogenic diets. We discuss Dr. Scher’s journey from conventional cardiology to ketogenic medicine, the connection between insulin resistance and cardiovascular health, and why looking only at LDL cholesterol may not tell the whole story. We explore triglyceride-to-HDL ratios, fasting insulin, blood sugar, calcium scores, CT angiography, and the complex relationship between ketogenic diets and rising LDL. Finally, we discuss ketogenic therapy and mental health, metabolic flexibility, and what endurance athletes can learn about nutrition and avoiding the dreaded “bonk.” Thanks as always for listening.
