Endocrine Matters

In this episode of Endocrine Matters, Dr. Arti Thangudu sits down with Dr. Adrian Chavez, PhD in Nutrition — a leading nutrition scientist, educator, and host of The Nutrition Science Podcast. With his background in exercise science, nutrition, and health promotion, Dr. Chavez has spent over a decade translating complex nutrition research into practical, evidence-based strategies for better health.

Together, Dr. Thangudu and Dr. Chavez dive deep into one of the most misunderstood topics in medicine and wellness: What is the right diet for diabetes?

Key Points:
  • Why there’s no one-size-fits-all diet for diabetes.
  • How to cut through the noise of nutrition misinformation.
  • The importance of nuance and personalization in metabolic health.
  • How evidence-based nutrition can transform diabetes care — and patient outcomes.
  • Why your individual experience and preferences matter just as much as the science.
This conversation is a refreshing reminder that nutrition isn’t about perfection — it’s about progress, context, and understanding what truly works for you.
