OmegaMatters: Episode 46
Hosts: Drs. Bill Harris & Kristina Harris Jackson
Guest: Dr. Annette Bosworth (Dr. Boz).
About this episode: In this "Be Our Guest" episode, Drs. Harris and Jackson talk to Dr. Boz, the professional alias of Dr. Annette Bosworth, an internal medicine physician, assistant professor, author, and keto-focused health educator who’s built a platform—BozMD—to help reverse chronic conditions like obesity, diabetes, depression, addiction, and autoimmune disorders using ketogenic nutrition and “keto chemistry.” She combines her medical expertise with storytelling—from university teaching roles to public features (CNN, Time, Fox News)—sharing practices like the “Dr. Boz Ratio” for measuring metabolic health at home via blood glucose and ketone levels. In this episode, they talk about eating sardines for 100 days and why Dr. Boz uses the Omega-3 Index test with her patients.
