Episode Details

If you look up Optavia on the internet, you’ll be shown a program that seems to have a lot of positive results and is rooted in science. However, as you remove the layers of clever marketing and coaches raving about the products (as they seek greater commission), we can see through the matrix to what this diet really is… a dangerous and expensive starvation program.

As always, here is my honest and unfiltered, dietitian review.
