Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy celebrated Father’s Day by getting a workout and eating. The Fat Guy did a 22 mile indoor cycling spin on his favorite Star Trac eSpinner. Dr Fitness used his YurBuds and said they could be putting together a promotion for our listeners.

Dr Fitness played a little soccer and did a hot yoga class this week. He also had some locker problems at his Lifetime Fitness. Our kids appreciated our fathering them and we wish a Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there that listen to the show.

Dr Fitness sends his kid to sleep away camp. Katie enjoys another vacation – this time a girls weekend. The Fat Guy has lost 7 pounds in 2 weeks sticking to his Fat Guy diet.

Our guest today was Richard Laver with Kate Farms. He invented Kate Farms Komplete Ultimate Meal Replacement Shakes. Richard shared some great stories growing up with a famous tennis relative as he tried to make it on the tour. He also survived a horrific plane crash that impacted his tennis career and changed his life.

As the Founder of Kate Farms, Richard Laver will tell you that his passion for healthy foods and taking care of people is the reason the company exists. Richard is a former tennis professional and the cousin of world famous tennis legend Rod Laver.

The inspiration behind Kate Farms, Kate, the Laver’s daughter, was born with cerebral palsy and the road ahead of her included feeding tubes, hospital visits, and numerous pharmaceutical drugs. Years later, after being diagnosed as “failing to thrive,” the meal replacement formula prescribed to her by doctors was laden with sugar and dairy for added calories. Some negative side effects that Kate endured were digestive problems, sleep apnea, and bottle rot. Richard couldn’t bear to see his daughter suffer any longer.

Richard, along with his wife, Michelle and a good friend, created their own meal replacement shake in their kitchen. Leaving out the sugar and dairy products, they replaced them with all-natural vegan ingredients. When they finished, their efforts resulted in “the world’s first dairy-free, gluten-free, and soy-free meal replacement shake.” Seeing radical results in the improvement of his daughter’s health, Richard decided to share the Kate Farms’ solution with the world.

Kate Farms Komplete Ultimate Meal Replacement Shakes (available in three flavors: Cocoa Fudge, Vanilla Bliss & Jav’a Latte) are an organic dairy-, gluten- and soy free ready-to-drink shakes with 24 fruits & vegetables, over 17 grams of high-level plant-based proteins and 21 superfoods (like acai, mangosteen, black currants, raspberries, green tea extract). Each shake has a shelf stability of 1-year and can be purchased for $4.29 each (or $51.48 for a case of 12) at www.katefarms.com (or in your local grocery shop).
