Alberto Alvarez EP 45: We’re Off To See the Wizard, The Wonderful Wizard of Macros

Alberto Alvarez brings his kind and genial nature to the podcast in our most detailed nutrition epsiode to date. Alberto details his path from a young overweight man, searching for information, losing the weight, the pitfalls along the way, and transitioning into a coach who helps others. We explain just what macros are and other basic nutrition concepts, why some people are easily lured in by the unscientific promises in our industry, how Alberto helps people get started on a weight loss journey, thoughts on merging the science of nutrition with the emotional and psychological aspects, and some of the cultural nuances in the Spanish speaking world and how it affects his work differently.
