What To Eat To Lose Fat Fast With Dr. Ted Naiman

In this week's episode, we welcome back Dr. Ted Naiman for the second time. Dr. Naiman, a board-certified physician specialising in Primary Care in Seattle, has dedicated his career to the practical application of diet and exercise in promoting optimal health. 

With a keen interest in the profound effects of dietary and exercise habits on health outcomes, Dr. Naiman has spent over two decades watching the differences in health between those who prioritise health and nutrition, and those who don’t. This led him to co-creating the P.E Diet and the new Hava App. 

Dr Naimans approach, both groundbreaking and straightforward, has made significant strides in guiding individuals toward achieving their best health. In today's episode, Dr Naiman answers the burning questions around the topics of Protein, Fasting, Fat-Loss and Sleep. 

Oh, and we even get a guest appearance from South Park's Cartman.
