The doctor, Dr Katsura is right there, you know. Before when I started I use to go like every other week, but now is monthly, so you know, it’s at your own, it’s at your own pace kinda thing.”

So, I mean, he takes your blood pressure and your vital things so you know you’re not getting hurt in anyway. Like you know the other diets, you’re lacking minerals and whatever so this one he gives you vitamins and whatever you need.”

Oh another thing is my meds was cut in half, you know. So they said, you know, medicine for blood pressure and diabetes and now those medicines are coming off so happy about that too. You know, saving my kidneys.”

A Personalized Program Was Ideal For Clyde’s Diabetes
“For me, I’m a diabetic so he customized my, that’s another reason, he couldn’t put me on a fast weight loss program because of the diabetic thing, so he customized my plan so you know, I wouldn’t hurt my diabetes things and the meds I was taking. Even my blood pressure med I was taking. You know, like I said, my meds were cut in half is really good.”
It Was Easier Than Other Programs
“I think the best thing is, I think it was easy, I mean not really easy but I think it was easier than the other plans that I tried and like I said, the supervision that he gave you. Mahalo, Dr Katsura. You really helped me out, very happy with the results. Thank you!”
