Hello, friend. It's episode 372 of the keto diet podcast. I can't even believe it.

372 episodes plus bonuses. I think we're above 400 at this point, which is just mind-blowing.

Thank you so much for coming along this ride with me. We have another great episode planned for today.

We're chatting with Dr. Dan, who is a Caltech-trained natural product chemist,

that has traveled to every continent discovering and researching bioactive compounds in plants

and using them to help others. He holds 16 patents and has developed 70 nutritional supplements

that gross 500 million in annual sales. He is an expert on how natural molecules from plants can

improve any health condition. Dr. Gubbler is a member of the London Speaker Bureau and has spoken

at over 150 events in 40 countries to audiences as large as 60,000 people. Dr. Dan is one of the founders

and chief science officers at Brilliant, an innovative proactive wellness company that formulates

nutritional supplements to unleash our innate brilliance. He is also the host of the Discover

with Dr. Dan, the proactive health podcast. Today, we're talking about plants and two different

I really go in just wanting to learn like you. So I hope that the questions that I asked were

beneficial. I love that we touched on heavy metals and mycotoxins and supplements guys. This has

been a burden on my heart for the last couple of months just going into the research and seeing how

many supplement brands literally don't care if they're heavy metals in them. And a lot of the

supplements I'm seeing recently are either sourced from or have mycotoxins in them specifically
