  • New favorite podcast

    10/10 recommend this podcast. Highest T men are always flat earth anti-vax Christians! I married one and would also 10/10 recommend it. I really enjoy learning about Kruger’s method. I’ve done it all (low carb, high carb, vegan, carnivore, prometabolic) but Kruger seems to have the most balanced and logical approach. I took his advice to women of eating 2-3 meals per day with no snacks (red meat heavy), repented of food idolatry, and decided I’m a slave to Christ alone and not my appetite. I’m d... more

  • Best podcast ever!

    Seriously Brian is the best podcast host ever the other guy. I think his name is Chris or something. He’s pretty good too kind of funny but Brian is definitely the reason I listen to the show. He is awesome.

  • Congratulations

    I’m hoping for less controversy of what the other side is doing and more information. Complaining about the other or less than optimal approach is so annoying and overdone. I have to speed through all this hubbub to see if you have any new info etc. I’m looking forward to positive and new content😊

  • Diet & Lifestyle

    I attended the ADAPT conference in Long Beach March 2020 where both Dr Greg and Brian Sanders spoke. Myself being on a journey of nutritional health and turning my life around as a 59 year old male I could not wait to listen to their podcast. Was not disappointed, they have views that I thought only I struggled with in todays marketing of fake healthy food. Be it Keto or just living a lifestyle healthy for yourself and the environment these guys seem to be legit and have a message that needs to... more
