Summary

Hello friends, and welcome back to Realfoodology! Today’s episode is an absolute treat, and you’ll definitely want to stick around for part two as we had so much to cover that we split our conversation with Dr. Nick Norwitz into two parts. Dr. Norwitz, a researcher and educator with a valedictorian background from Dartmouth, a PhD from Oxford, and an MD from Harvard, brings a wealth of knowledge on metabolic health and its intricacies. We explore his personal journey with IBD, breakdown studies on artificial sweeteners, and his unique perspective on metabolism that challenges conventional wisdom. His passion and depth of understanding are truly captivating, and I’m excited for you to hear this fascinating discussion.
