86-93% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy
This YouTube video (uploaded by Darrian Peck) argues that a large majority of Americans are metabolically unhealthy and focuses on insulin resistance as a central problem. The speakers claim that insulin resistance causes impaired immune function (including within arterial walls), which leads to poor wound healing (e.g., toe cuts progressing to foot loss), inability to repair endothelial damage, and ultimately contributes to atherosclerosis. The dialogue frames metabolic syndrome, obesity, and diabetes as common and causally linked to these immune and vascular complications.
