Well, last year I dislocated my left knee and had to have an operation to remove the loose cartilage from beneath the patella. After the operation, I received grim news. My orthopedic surgeon informed me that if I did not start losing weight - I would need a knee replacement within 5 years or ...

Despite having tons of health benefits, keto tea fits right on in with my breakfast and lunch schedule.
