Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD Podcast. Christine Trimpe is an author, speaker, and weight loss coach. 48 years old and 100+ pounds overweight, Christine’s health was in a precarious position. She had also been battling fatty liver disease, pre-diabetes, sleep apnea, and painful ovarian cysts. Today, her body has been set free from decades of obesity and a plethora of related health issues. How did she do it? How did she reclaim her health? It was part spiritual transformation, part mental renewal, and part nutritional understanding.
