Dr Louise Phillips: Navigating Metabolic Wellness – Don’t Be a TOFI (Thin-Outside-Fat-Inside) 

 July 21, 2023

By  Therese L'Seow

Welcome to our podcast where we explore different ways to transform our health. In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Louise Phillips, a medical doctor who specializes in metabolic health. Dr. Phillips has extensive experience helping patients improve their health through various dietary approaches, including low-carb diets.

How can we optimise metabolic health?

In this episode, we dive deep into metabolic health with Dr. Phillips and learn valuable information that can help transform your health. Dr. Phillips shares her insights on how a low-carb diet can positively impact metabolic health, and how certain biomarkers can be used to measure and control it. We also discuss the importance of personalized nutrition and how dietary approaches should be tailored to an individual’s unique needs and circumstances.

You will discover the definition of metabolic syndrome, which includes high blood pressure, abnormal waist circumference, and poor lipid profiles. We also explore the risks of being thin on the outside but fat on the inside (TOFI) and the continuum of too much sugar/fat from the diet, and the dire consequences of inaction.

In addition, we discuss emerging research on how a low-carb diet can prevent or even reverse metabolic dysfunction, and valuable biomarkers, such as triglycerides, that can be used to measure and control metabolic health.
