I've always wondered if any of our regulars here also pay for a membership at dietdoctor.com. I see us referencing and linking things that are there, but wondered if anyone actually joined.

cheers, and thanks

    I haven't. I'm not saying it's necessarily a bad thing - but I always wince at being charged for membership to a club, clinic, group, site or font of information, that I know, more or less, I can obtain elsewhere, for nothing.... Besides, funds are limited and I can't justify it. Mainly for the reasons given...

    I read like lots from diet doctor, but I won't pay. I think I found a group on Facebook that is probably just as good.

    I do, fairly new to it, but I love access to the interviews/videos etc.. and recipes - it helps keep me on track.

    I do. I like having full access to all of the information. I think the price is reasonable. I think a membership fee is a good way to fund the website and in my mind sure beats creating keto frankenfoods to support the enterprise. I also appreciate that you can access a lot of information for free.

    Yeah, good point. No question it's providing a public service, and it's not free to operate. Taking $$ straight up (and a pretty modest amount, to be fair) sure beats running pharmaceutical & frankenfood ads, etc., to finance the thing. Thanks @Sabine_Stroehm for the question!

    Yeah, I'm always hesitant to join an outfit that would stoop to take money from someone like me.
