By Jim September 9, 2017

This is the weekly digest for my Low Carb Nugget Podcast. In the latest episodes of the podcast, I reviewed the goals and plans for my upcoming keto diet reboot, considered the top three LCHF survival foods that are nutritious, shelf-stable and easy to find, and examined a recent study that found eating a modest amount of plant-based foods might help you live longer.
