Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD Podcast. Jeff Kotterman is a licensed Master Sports Nutritionist (the first in San Diego!). He is also a coach, mentor, teacher, speaker, researcher, and is the founder of the TriSystem Health Network. In addition to holding every certification the NASN has to offer, he has earned a degree in health and physical education from the College of New Jersey in Trenton and holds additional certifications from AFAA, ACE, and NAFC. In this conversation, Brian, Tro, and Jeff discuss genetic predisposition to obesity, the social and environmental factors of obesity, the powerful partnership of diet and exercise, how hyper-palatability can diminish the feeling of being full, strategies for avoiding relapses and binging, meal frequency, how to keep your patients motivated on their dietary journey, avoiding nutritional ‘martyrdom,’ the proper uses of food, and when it is appropriate to use whey protein on a low-carb diet.
