I recently began listening to the podcast. As usual, Max is a wealth of information. I love that you can find the info from the podcast on Max's website. I am trying to take it all in, but it is like drinking from a fire hose. It is helpful to know there's a place I can turn to for what I can't remember. I wish our doctors had this type of information available to them. Thank you Max!

I love Max!
