For decades, obesity treatment focused on behavior.

Dr. Robert Kushner says the missing piece was biology.

GLP-1s may be the first tools capable of helping patients “fight biology with biology.”

Will AI replace doctors?

For A Whole New Level, Dr. Ami Bhatt explains why that misses the real opportunity.

AI should not be making clinical decisions independently.

We call diabetes a blood sugar problem.

But that might not be the real issue.

This conversation breaks it down differently:

It’s about how your body handles energy—not just how much sugar is in your blood.

Did you know that tighter blood sugar control can lead to better epigenetic markers for your baby? Dr. Ann Shippy explains how to use a CGM as a tool for experiments, not restriction.

One of the most important heart disease risk factors is something many people have never heard of.

It’s called lipoprotein(a) — or Lp(a).

In this episode of A Whole New Level, Dr. Ronald Krauss explains:

- Up to one-third of the population may carry elevated levels
- It’s largely genetically determined
- And it significantly increases the risk for heart disease and stroke

Most people don’t need more data.
They need direction.

Levels Programs focus your effort around a single metabolic goal — like heart health — and tie your daily habits directly to measurable biomarkers.

In our most recent cohorts:
• 80% improved ApoB in 4 weeks
• Median LDL dropped 15 mg/dL (no medication)
• ApoB/LDL reductions of 25–40% in 6–8 weeks

Consistency compounds.

Explore Programs in the Levels app.

What does a calcium score actually tell you about your heart?

For A Whole New Level, Dr. Matthew Budoff explains why coronary calcium is like the tip of an iceberg — and why what you don’t see matters even more. @BudoffMd

- Calcified plaque is only the visible portion of the disease.
- Just like an iceberg, most of the danger lies below the surface.
- If calcium is present, there’s usually soft, non-calcified plaque underneath.
- The higher the calcium score, the greater the total plaque burden.

What does “ultra-processed” actually mean?

Are ultra-processed foods harmful — or is it more complicated?

For A Whole New Level, Christopher Gardner, PhD, explains why formulation — not just processing — may drive health effects. @GardnerPhD

Is obesity driven by calories or hormones?

For A Whole New Level, Gary Taubes explains why insulin, not calories alone, dominates fat storage and weight gain.

- People can become obese without eating more than lean individuals.
- Others eat large amounts of food and remain lean.
- Insulin is the primary regulator of fat storage.
- Carbohydrate restriction can drive weight loss without intentional calorie reduction.
⁠
"People don’t get fat to begin with because they eat too much. They get fat because of the effect of these carbohydrates on hormonal regulation of fat storage, which happens to be dominated by insulin." - Gary Taubes⁠

Obesity & failed advice

Why has “eat less, move more” failed for decades? Eric Ravussin, PhD, argues that obesity isn’t just eating too much and exercising too little. Humans evolved to defend against starvation, not abundance, making loss harder—and successful people change their environments, not biology.
