"All I want for Christmas is Season 2 of Kickback Science" - Mariah Carey probably

Well guess what? We're back!! Season 2 of Kickback Science premiered on Christmas day! And what better way to start season 2 than to talk about diet and type 2 diabetes during the holiday season?!!! (it's okay.. don’t feel bad about the candy cane eggnog).

In this week's episode we sit down with Dr. Peter Smoak, PhD to talk about Type 2 Diabetes. Dr. Smoak is an Assistant Professor at New Mexico State University, and his research focuses on the effects of medicinal, dietary, and botanical interventions as well as exercise on the improvement of pancreatic islets and diabetes.

Kick back as we discuss what probiotics, herbal supplements, and even chili peppers can do to improve your health! We talk about how our gut can impact every organ in our body, and how we can improve our gut health with adequate nutrition. We even discuss the increasingly popular GLP-1 “weight loss” medications! And of course.... we discuss how incredibly important exercise is for treatment/prevention of pretty much any disease.
