The Blood Test Prep Detail Most People Miss – TFP #022 | Jenny Mitich

In this episode of The Feldman Protocol, what happens when a personal health experiment turns into a public-facing education project? Guest makes the case for practical, data-minded self-tracking while navigating online narratives and everyday constraints. Dave and Jenny Mitich (nutrition educator and author of *The Complete Carnivore*) discuss glucose monitoring, protein-to-fat adjustments, testing prep, content creation, parenting and culture, and why incentives and data collection methods shape what people think they “know.”
