In this episode of The Best You Podcast, Nick sits down with Andres Ayesta, Registered Dietitian and founder of Planos Nutrition, to unpack his ambitious new self-experiment. Andres is undergoing 60 days of rigorous dietary testing—30 days on a modified Whole30 diet, followed by 30 days on a Carnivore Diet. What makes this journey unique is the depth of tracking and intention behind it: from body composition and bloodwork to sleep, recovery, hunger levels, and mental clarity.

We dive into the science behind metabolism—how to heal it, speed it up, and avoid the most common mistakes that sabotage it. Whether you're a health nerd, someone struggling with consistency, or curious about diet trends, this conversation is full of eye-opening insights.

What You’ll Learn:

● Why Andres is doing a Whole30-to-Carnivore transition

● Key biomarkers he’s tracking and what he's already seeing

● How metabolism works (and how to fix a "slow" one)

● The 3 most common mistakes people make with their health

● Why restrictive diets don’t work—and what to do instead
