On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I’m joined by Dr Matthew Nagra from Vancouver, who comes onto the podcast to discuss a whole host of health and nutrition topics ranging from saturated fats, oils, keto diets, supplements, cardiovascular disease and diabetess. 

Dr Nagra is certified in plant-based nutrition, is a doctor of naturpathic medicine and holds a bachelor of science degree in microbiology. With a wealth of experience and knowledge in chronic disease treatment, this is an episode that’ll be worth taking notes on, and passing onto your loved ones.

I’m very excited and proud to announce we’ve developed a brand new partnership with one of the world’s leading premium supplement brands, Optimum Nutrition, where they’ll be helping support our RNT members, and listeners of this podcast, on their journey of health, fitness and total transformation. With the world’s #1 best-selling protein powder in their range, and a growing plant-based range, you can now use the code RNT20 to get 20% off in their US and UK stores. My personal favourite are their plant-based protein bars.
