Hello and welcome back to another episode. We are headed back in time for one of the more memorable episodes during the keto diet podcast days. We had Max Legavere on. He's the author of Genius Foods and the host of Genius Life. He's since written a bunch more books, including Genius Kitchen and Genius Life and Genius

Foods become smarter and a whole bunch of other things. He's an American author who's written

books about diet and brain health. And he has really blown up over the last couple of years.

I've seen him being interviewed by Jordan Peterson and a whole bunch of other people. He's kind of up over the last couple of years. I've seen him being interviewed by Jordan Peterson

and a whole bunch of other people. He's kind of all over the place now. And it was really cool to get

to sit down with him way, way, way, way, way back in the day and get to pick his brain on brain health.

So before we get into it, I'd love to ask a favor from you. If you've been listening since the keto diet

podcast era, this is absolutely completely your sign to take just a moment to leave a review

for the show. Your reviews help so much, like more than you could ever imagine. And if you

are gleaning anything from these episodes, I would really

appreciate you to take a couple moments, write a sentence, give me your feedback, just click around

on your podcast player and leave a review. Now, even though I don't personally eat keto anymore,

my roots are absolutely in keto. I still fully wholeheartedly

coach and support women through a ketogenic diet. And I do see it as being such a powerful,

metabolic, therapeutic tool. I get asked so often, Leanne, since you're not eating keto, I guess you don't support

keto. And if I were just an influencer, I would probably say something like, yeah, ew, keto, blah.

It doesn't work for me, but I'm not. I'm a practitioner first. I was a practitioner for years

before I started Healthful Pursuit, and I am a practitioner at my

core.

So just because I'm not doing something currently doesn't mean that I don't stand behind it.

If there's something that I don't stand behind, you won't find it on my website.

I've completely removed various things over the years that don't align with current science, literature.
