I look forward to meeting you.

Sincerely,

Dr. Michael Aziz was among the first doctors to alert the public about  the danger of seed oils, and transfats long before the media caught on.  Dr. Aziz was also the first doctor to alert the public about the dangers of both low-carb and keto diets since nitrites in processed meats have been linked to many types of cancer.
