Episode notes

Simon Hill sits down with Fritz Horsman, a popular fitness coach who focuses on helping people optimize their plant-based diet and exercise. What I like about Fritz is his focus on the practical side of things, which is exactly what this conversation is centered on. Is protein powder healthy? Are juices a good addition to your diet? What should we do to curb cravings? Should we eat low fat and plenty more? As always, if you want to watch this, you can do so on YouTube where full-length videos of each episode of the Proof can be found.

Episode #239. Looking for simple, practical ways to improve your exercise regime and eat for better health? Coach Fritz Horstmann understands the difficulties of balancing health with a busy life, and joins me today to offer guidance on how you can do just that.
