About this episode:


There is no one size diet plan that fits everybody, and my guests, Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart, co-founders of BIOptimizers and co-authors of The Ultimate Nutrition Bible, couldn’t agree more. On this podcast today they discuss the science behind finding the perfect diet for your body. Matt and Wade waste no time in breaking down the “pyramid of nutritional decisions” to help listeners determine which diet works best for them—whether it’s keto, paleo, plant-based, or glucose-management based—while emphasizing how genetics play a key role in this process. Their conversation also covers several cutting-edge biohacks, including HOCATT (Hyperthermic Ozone and Carbonic Acid Transdermal Technology) and the pros and cons of ice baths for boosting metabolism. Join Ann Louse for an important discussion as Matt and Wade also explain why almost every dieter eventually hits a plateau, why most people need supplementation (90% of North Americans are deficient in magnesium for example), as well as why digestive enzymes and HCL are absolutely essential as you age.
