This podcast is of extremly high quality and is based on the most actual research. Very informative and also casual and easy to listen - complex medical terms are well explained 👍🏼

I’ve found this podcast very helpful for myself as I navigate Long COVID and ME/CFS. Would love an episode specifically on nutrition, especially as it pertains to mitochondrial health. An episode on caregiving while sick (for kids or elderly) would also be great. Thank you!
