Summary
We are excited to welcome Dr. Tony Hampton to the show today! Dr. Hampton adopted the low carb diet when he began to realize, through his own reading and by following the research, that it could be used to combat diabetes. When he realized that conventional methods didn’t treat the underlying disease, he decided that he had to re-evaluate his perspective. In this episode we discuss the culture variable in the equation of working with a patient to improve their health. Additionally, we talk about wholistic health and the importance of addressing underlying issues leading people to make unhealthy choices. Thanks for listening in!
