Drew Decker is a graduate research assistant at Ohio State University, and on this episode, we dive into some of the science and research studies surrounding a ketogenic or low-carb diet. I have a lot of respect for Drew and the research he’s doing, and I have no doubt you’ll learn something from this episode.

What we discussed:

Ketogenic diet and its effects on exercise performance, with a focus on a recent study comparing Clif Bars and our Keto Bricks (4:31)
