There are 37 billion chemical reactions happening within your body every second. And every single one of these reactions requires vitamins and minerals to make it work. This is why what you put on your fork is the most important thing you do every day, and it’s why I say food isn’t like medicine—food is medicine. It’s information, and it’s the most powerful drug on the planet. It influences your capacity to live a rich, energetic, connected, soulful life.
In today’s episode of a new series called Health Bites, I discuss how to use food as medicine. I share the principles of eating an optimal diet, a list of the foods we should avoid, my number-one food philosophy, and more!
