In this video we discuss the following topics:
- dietary confusion: keto, intermittent fasting, skipping breakfast, eating breakfast, FODMAPS, gluten-free, and more!
- the concepts of 1st Things 1st (whole foods, plant-centric) and 2nd Things 2nd (individualization for your specific needs and constitution)
- what does the plant-based diet and paleo diet have in common?
- three sources of nutrients: primary (plants, producers), secondary (animals), and tertiary (processed foods and factory farming)
