The sad part is that there are too many people who pay little or no attention to their DIETS as part of a plan to LIVE HEALTHY. It’s an epidemic in America and unhealthy lifestyles kill millions of us each year.
That’s why this week’s guest, MAX LUGAVERE, is back for another must-listen podcast.
He is a health and science journalist, TV personality, and the author of the newly released GENIUS KITCHEN as well as the NEW YORK TIMES best-sellers THE GENIUS LIFE, and GENIUS FOODS which has been published in 8 languages around the globe.
Max is also the host of the #1 iTunes health podcast THE GENIUS LIFE and appears regularly on the Dr. Oz Show, the Rachael Ray Show, and The Doctors as well as a contributor to Vice, Fast Company, CNN, and The Daily Beast, and many other media outlets.
I hope you’re literally ready to MAX OUT in a fast-moving hour that covers A LOT OF IMPORTANT FOOD AND HEALTH TOPICS like:
Our obsession with PROTEIN intake Is there a downside to eating too many PLANTS? The importance of FISH in our diet Using EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL Misconceptions about SALT and SUGAR-SWEETENED DRINKS HEART and BRAIN foods to EAT AND AVOID The importance of eating SLOW PORTION control Why FUNGI is good for you
Max and I also get into how to DINE OUT HEALTHY, which is a huge concern for all of us. Even more important, MAX downloads valuable information about consuming food that is exposed to environmental toxins and steps you can take to minimize any threats to your health.
You can’t live your best life unless you are intentional about what you put into your body. Take time to study Max’s work, and the work of others, on this important topic.
Think of it less like homework, and more as LIFEWORK.
Because that’s exactly what eating the RIGHT THINGS in the RIGHT WAY is…
