Richard Smith
Richard Smith was 33 when he learned he was Type II diabetic with a body fat percentage just under 60%. He suffered with other ailments that impacted his life. After a ‘Well Man’ test with my doctor the found out his blood glucose levels were through the roof, blood pressure was high, kidneys were in bad shape and Pattern B LDL cholesterol was high.
Richard hated his life and something had to change. His friend Jonathan introduced him to keto. Within the first month, he lost 2 stone. By month 4, he had lost an amazing 4 stone – that’s 56lbs in 120 days! Over 12 months, his total loss of body fat was over 100lbs.

Quotes by Richard Smith
“I actively tried to consume the foods that we were told were good for us, the foods that we needed to consume to be fit and healthy. These just seemed to make me worse.”
