How to Eat and Live Healthy (Plus Myths on Red Meat, Paleo, and the Health Food Industry)

The mind can endure an unhealthy and sick body, but it can’t run on an optimal level for long during that time.

So why create a challenge for your mind when you don’t have to?

To say eating healthy is an important aspect of creating an amazing life, would be an understantment.

It doesn’t mean it will make you compassionate, motivated, inspiring, wealthy, live with integrity and know how to deal with your emotions… but it’s a great place to start for a solid foundation.

However, there is so much information out there about what is healthy (much of the information even contradictory) that it’s tough to really know if what you are eating is serving you.

This week on The School of Greatness we have a “blast from the past” guest who I actually went to high school with.  She is a paleo expert and just wrote a book which is all about simplifying the way we see food so that we can eat well without the stress.

Welcome to episode 55 with nutrition and paleo expert, Liz Wolfe.

“When people overhaul their diets from the processed junk that we’ve been sold as junk food, to something based around whole food, they lose pounds of inflammation.”
