  • Helpful explanations

    During a conversation with my doc, I asked questions about what I should and should not eat. He told me to make sure I was using science based nutrition advice to get it all figured out and then shared this podcast with me. He has learned a lot about nutrition from this doctor, and felt that the way it was explained would be beneficial for my new way of eating. He was right! I’ve learned so much and feel confident that I can make this change over time and do it right. Thank you Dr. Chavez for ta... more

    “Cut through then noise” is a perfect description. The topics are worthwhile he has done his research, he is not aligned with any particular company so it’s just unbiased science based information communicated in an organized engaging way.
