The Guru’s Guru | Mike Julian

Mike Julian has been a great friend and taught me a LOT over the past six years or so!
Shortly after I kicked it off the Optimising Nutrition Facebook Group, Mike made so many insightful contributions that I asked him to become an admin.
Back in the day, we had a unique group of people who would share their research and insights (including Tommy Wood, Robb Wolf, Raymund Edwards, Luis Villasenor) eager to learn more about nutrition and metabolism. It made for a unique learning environment and a hive mind learning.
