DR. BEN BIKMAN
Professor, Author, Researcher & Metabolic Scientist
Explore Ben’s research and insights into the role insulin resistance plays in chronic diseases.
Ben’s first book, Why We Get Sick, delves into the pervasive issue of insulin resistance as a common underlying factor in major chronic diseases. His new companion book, How Not to Get Sick (available July, 2024) is co-authored with fitness expert Diana Keuilian and translates Ben’s research into actionable steps for improving insulin sensitivity, combating chronic illness, achieving a healthy weight, and enhancing well-being through Insulin-Smart Eating,™ exercise, and intermittent fasting.

Today’s “Plagues of Prosperity” have one thing in common—insulin resistance.
We are sick.
Around the world, we struggle with diseases that were once considered rare. Cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease and type 2 diabetes affect millions each year.
Many people are also struggling with hypertension, obesity, fatty liver disease, dementia, low testosterone, menstrual irregularities, infertility and more.
We treat the symptoms, not realizing that all the disorders shown here (and many others) have one thing in common… To varying degrees, each is caused or made worse by the inability of the hormone insulin to perform as it should—a condition largely within our control called insulin resistance.
And you may have it. Odds are you do—over half of all adults in the United States are insulin resistant, with most other countries either worse or not far behind.

About Dr. Bikman
Dr. Bikman’s research focus is to elucidate the molecular mechanisms that mediate the disruption that causes and accompanies metabolic disorders, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and dementia. Driven by his academic training (Ph.D. in Bioenergetics and postdoctoral fellowship with the Duke-National University of Singapore in metabolic disorders), he is currently exploring the contrasting roles of insulin and ketones as key drivers of metabolic function. He frequently publishes his research in peer-reviewed journals and presents at international science meetings.
