QUOTES
“I needed a different approach, and that's when everything shifted for me. I really got into understanding how nutritional imbalances translated into hormonal imbalances because our hormones do shift.”

“We can't produce good energy if we don't have the right nutrients igniting the functions or if we have a lot of oxidative stress and the body doesn't have the capacity to clear it, and your cells are sluggish, heavy, and weighed down.”
