168: The Genius of Your Genes wth Donna Gates

Donna Gates, M.Ed., ABAAHP, is 73 years old and looks 40! She is truly aging in reverse. I met her because she was interviewing me for HER online summit (which I will share in the show notes so you can access it) and I quickly connected with her, loved my conversation and wanted to learn more. After learning that she is the international best-selling author of The Body Ecology Diet: Recovering Your Health and Rebuilding Your Immunity and The Body Ecology Guide to Growing Younger: Anti-Aging Wisdom for Every Generation I HAD to learn more. I learned that for over 30 years, Donna has been on a mission to change the way the world eats. Her first book, The Body Ecology Diet, introduced the world to a sugar-free, gluten-free, casein-free, and probiotic-rich diet and a way of life that is now followed by tens of thousands of people around the world. And GET THIS: In 1994, Donna introduced a powdered blend of stevia rebaudioside to the US and it has since become the safest and most popular natural sweeter in the world. She ALSO pioneered and championed foods like young coconut kefir and coconut oil, and coined the phrase "inner ecosystem" to describe the still undiscovered network of microbes in our gut, now called the "Microbiome." She also began teaching about the long-forgotten health benefits of fermented foods to provide the diversity needed in a healthy gut. She is a true Pioneer!
