Hey, welcome to the E to Live podcast. I am here with my dad, Dr. Furman.

Hi, everybody. Welcome. And I'm here with my daughter, Jenna. And we are diving into a hot topic today, so hot that this might be the second time we've covered it.

You know, but we're hitting it from a different angle and more giving different information about that similar topic. And that topic is protein. So we're going to dive into protein because it is so talked about in our podcast, in the Nutitarian diet, on the internet,
