Just listened to the podcast with Dr David Cavan
I absolutely loved it
To start with David is a uk consultant and I always get excited when this happens
I had never heard of Dr David Cavan before but he has a wealth of knowledge and the history to go with it
I found it so restorative in reaffirming my faith in my lowcarb lifestyle
Especially after this time of year when we are discouraged by those around us the we are in the festive season. Most peeps will adopt the “I don’t care now it’s Christmas. Wait until the new year”. Approach
I would definitely recommend this podcast to anyone
