  • Excellent, provocative content and a balanced approach to delivering it

    Dr. Scher has been an early, holistic thinker on the topic of metabolic health. He brings interesting, cutting edge speakers on his podcast and interviews them in a way that brings out salient points for the listener. He is careful to present content and ask questions in a balanced way that assumes an educated listener who wants expert guidance for how to think about drivers of their own metabolic health.
