Food is fuel. Nutrition is a lifeline. Eating is survival. The one constant that remains with us in each decade of life is the need to exercise and the necessity to replenish things lost during exercise. Our cells thrive or die based on the choices we make. This is not yet another lecture telling you how
The world of nutrition can be just as overwhelming as choosing your pizza toppings. Keto? Paleo? Carnivore? Mediterranean? Vegan? Vegetarian? Lacto Vegetarian? Ovo Vegetarian? Lacto-Ovo Vegetarian?
