Hello and welcome back to another episode of the Food Medic podcast. I'm your host, as always, Dr. Hazel.

done, but it tells you what you really need to know. So I've been using my whoop for a few months now and I am so impressed with the

amount and level of insight it can provide you. So each morning when you wake up, you get a recovery
