Today we are joined by Evan DeMarco. Evan is a sports medicine and nutrition expert, a published author, a public speaker, and a frequent guest on television, radio, and digital platforms. He is also a successful serial entrepreneur whose interest in diet, health, and supplements began as an athlete and consumer, and led him to create a supplement called Alpha Omega.

Now, in order to do that, he actually went back to school, studied bio- and organic chemistry, and dove deep into everything from prenatal supplements to fat-soluble vitamins.

And, as you folks can imagine – you know me – I geeked out hard on this episode, and I really enjoyed learning all about all of these things. It's not every day that I get to talk to a biochemist or an organic chemist – and I get to talk to both today.

So we learn a lot in this episode, for example about some of the supplements that you might want to consider because of some of the dietary imbalances and deficiencies that we have in our modern diet and lifestyle. We also talk – of course – about one of my favorite subjects which is digital addiction, and what it is doing to our brains. The rest of the things we talked about, well, I'll leave it to you folks to discover!

But I'll tell you this: I'm sure you're going to enjoy the episode, because I certainly did!
