OR should you get moving first and then pay attention to what you’re putting in your mouth?<br> MV argues why it’s FOOD!<br> 1) Food is fuel.<br> 2)  “Eat less and exercise more” mantra of all conventional diet and weight loss programs is setting you up for failure. <br> 3) The right food will CHANGE you from the inside out without ever stepping foot on a treadmill. Whole foods to balance blood sugar, improve mood, cool inflammation, increased, steady energy, no more headaches, gastric issues. The natural consequence of eating well is that you will WANT to move more!<br> MA argues why it’s EXERCISE!
