Ep.40 Making Fiber Sexy
Success within diet is not about restriction, it's not about deprivation, it's about creating a mindset where rather than running away from the food that we have demonized and we're supposed to be scared of, rather than constantly running away, let's run towards the food that heals. Let's gravitate towards healing foods.
