Whenever someone challenges the idea that there are concerns about the consumption of carbohydrates on health, Jimmy likes to talk to them to find out why. So when Jimmy saw a book on Amazon by a personal training and nutrition consultant named Nate Miyaki recently, he knew he had to have him on the show for an interview. Nate has an educational background in kinesiology, is a Certified Specialist in Sports Nutrition (ISSA), a Certified Specialist in Fitness Nutrition (ISSA), and a Certified Personal Trainer (ACE). He has been in practice helping clients for the past 15 years working with professional athletes, models and busy working professionals wanting to look better and get healthy.
The name of his brand new book that made it appear he was not an advocate of low-carb diets is called The Truth about Carbs: How to Eat Just the Right Amount of Carbs to Slash Fat, Look Great Naked, & Live Lean Year-Round. Listen in as Jimmy and Nate share about diet specificity and matching the program that is right for a person’s individual needs, the difference between health goals and performance/physique goals, why he is no fan of dietary dogma, his philosophy of discovering the right diet structure to make your plan as practical, functional, and sustainable as possible, and a whole lot more! Nate may have a slice of bread on the front cover of his book, but you’ll quickly learn he’s no fan of THAT kind of carbohydrate.

Interesting. I wonder what your guest would do with a Tim Noakes example…running a lot (not sedentary), eating whole foods (not junk) but on his way to poor health (injured/itis’ from a lot of exercise; diabetes from raising blood sugar/insulin resistance/eating carbs)? At what point does the message change- do we wait until we are pre-diabetic to start checking our blood sugar after eating a meal? If you eat 100-150 grams carbohydrate a day, might be wise to see how your body responds to it…
Thanks again for wonderful, thought-provoking podcasts.

Thanks for this great interview, Jimmy. This was exactly what I was asking you for last year — another interview with “the other side” in terms of a demand for carbs to fortify an anaerobic workout plan. I think Nate represented this fairly but with an open mind to ketogenic possibilities for sedentary types or those doing endurance sports.
I was happy to hear your results at the end regarding raising testosterone and maintaining healthy thyroid measurements on a ketogenic diet. These are things that many anti-low-carb advocates such as Matt Stone claim will be adversely affected by low-carb diets. So today you addressed a lot of the important issues that are often debated.
Good work,
