Ed Latimore: If your health matters, ask the hard questions - #67

As an ex-professional heavyweight boxer with a physics degree, Ed Latimore can surely explain how lipolysis works for the audience to understand. Not all healthcare professionals can do that. He’s also not the type who would buy any information just thrown at him without digging and understanding especially if it’s his health that’s on the line. The creator of “Coffee So Black” memes, he offers so much knowledge in this episode, sharing his personal experiences on losing weight as a professional boxer and how he attributed this to cutting carbohydrates and eating a heavy meat diet. Listen to him as he states why saturated fat is bad for us is a myth, what our body prefers to burn vs what it actually burns first, and how this affects our metabolism. As this media influencer with 200,000 Twitter followers sums up, let’s make our health the number 1 priority because no one else would do that for us.
