Thank you for tuning in for another episode of Life’s Best Medicine. Dr. Kevin Gendreau is a board certified physician, obesity medicine specialist, and primary care doctor. In order to cope with his father’s cancer diagnosis, he turned to food and ended up weighing over 300lbs. After losing both his Father and his Sister to cancer, he decided to make a change in his eating habits. After living a low carb life and employing intermittent fasting for 18 months, he had lost 125lbs!
In this discussion, Brian and Kevin talk about eating clean, the mental health benefits of ditching processed junk food, the importance of satiety as a factor for success on your diet, the process of recovering from sugar and carb addiction, and why stress is a major component of weight gain.
Life’s Best Medicine According to Kevin: “Love. It was the love I had for my niece and nephew and sister. I wanted to be at my best and at my healthiest to help take care of my niece and nephew in the event that something happened to my sister.”
Thank you for listening. Have a blessed day and stay healthy!
