In this episode of The Feldman Protocol, a core question hangs over the conversation: how did so many clinicians and patients miss low-carb interventions for so long? Dave sits down with Doug Reynolds, founder of Low Carb USA and president of the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners, as the guest makes the case for carbohydrate reduction in chronic disease, practitioner education gaps, cultural food traditions, patient-driven change, conference-based knowledge sharing, and why engineers often follow data over authority.
