Summary

Can one molecule help treat obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and even Alzheimer’s? Dr. Barry Sears says yes—and it’s called AMPK.

In this episode of The Wellness Zone podcast, Dr. Sears explores the future of chronic disease treatment and why activating AMPK could be the key to helping reverse insulin resistance, reducing inflammation, and preventing conditions like fatty liver disease, kidney disease, autoimmune disorders, and neurological diseases like Parkinson’s, ADHD, and Alzheimer’s.

Rather than relying on pharmaceutical drugs, Dr. Sears explains how a precise anti-inflammatory diet—what he calls Metabolic Engineering—can activate AMPK naturally. By using food like a drug, in the right ratio and on a consistent basis, it’s possible to improve metabolic health and even slow down the aging process.

✅ Learn how AMPK works

✅ Discover how diet impacts your genes and metabolism

✅ See why Metabolic Engineering may be the next frontier in medicine

📺 Watch now to find out how the right diet can be a powerful tool in fighting chronic disease and promoting long-term health.

Topics We Discuss:

[00:01]- This ushers into what I call a really a new era of medicine. If you can reduce insulin resistance, all those diseases

[00:08]- that I talked about become to dissipate very, very quickly. Hello and welcome to the Wellness Zone podcast. I’m Mary Perry and I’m here with Dr. Barry Sears.

[00:24]- And today we’re going back in time to talk about the history of drugs. So, Dr. Sears, we are going way back in time.

[00:30]- So it sounds like we’re starting around 3000 bc. Is that correct? That’s right. And really, really with almost the beginning

[00:37]- of written history, because now we find out looking at the ancient Egyptian and Sumerian text, that they were basically using a wide series of botanicals to treat chronic disease.

[00:44]- omega threes fish oil, and really, are we getting enough within our diet? Well, first of all, Omega-3 fatty acids are

[00:51]- essential nutrients. What does that mean? You have to have ’em or you’re gonna die. So basically having adequate levels of Omega-3 fatty acids is a critical aspect if you wanna live a longer and better life. Now, do Americans eat, uh, a lot of fish? Well, not really.
