Featured Topic: "Carbohydrates and Blood Sugar Testing"

In this featured topic, I interview Dr. Richard Cohen from Bioletics. Our discussion includes:

-Why traditional blood glucose tests can be ineffective...

-How to know exactly how your body is responding to your current carbohydrate intake...

-Why you need to pay attention to blood sugar, especially if you're an athlete....

-New, cutting-edge procedures for evaluating your carbohydrate status...

-What is an "A1C" test?

-And much more!

If you want to know more about your blood sugar and carbohydrate management, you’re going to want to listen to this interview. Dr. Cohen really knows his stuff, and is on the cutting-edge when it comes to dispelling old-fashioned medical concepts. His entire Bioletics program can be best understood by listening to the interviews about the six key performance factors in podcasts #53 and #62 (which you can find by clicking here). If you’re ready to get started and want to testy our own internal performance factors from your home, just click here to go to the Bioletics website to begin your six key performance factor testing or call Bioletics at 888-371-1033, ask for Dr. Richard Cohen, and tell him that Ben Greenfield sent you.
