Dr. Brighten is a naturopathic doctor. She began her studies in nutritional biochemistry, receiving a PhD in nutrition. As a kid, she had GI issues and discovered that food was her medicine. She stumbled across naturopathic medicine and it was an instant fit. One of the things she likes about naturopathic medicine is that the body is regarded as wise. It is medicine, but also an art.

Alessandro (Alex) shares many details about how keto-adapted diets can improve sports performance and affect heart rate variability (HRV). Alex discovered the use of HRV when he was searching for a way to measure the inflammatory response. Now that he has increased his HRV, Alex no longer suffers from overtraining syndrome and no longer injures himself by pushing too hard. A drop in HRV shows that something is taxing the body, perhaps the immune system.
