NUTRITION PHILOSOPHY:
- Over restriction is dead; if your practitioner is recommending this, they are stuck in 2010 and not evolving
- Whole food is soul food and fed is best
- Sustainable, synergistic nutrition is in (the opposite of whack-a-mole supplementation & supplement graveyards)
- You don’t have to figure it out alone
- Do your best and leave the rest
