I cannot even express how much I appreciate podcasts like this. Thank you guys so much.
I am doing Sinclair method but desperately want to be a non drinker. Chris and Matt inspire us so much .
We share your podcasts to as much as possible. We are both activists . Sometimes the pain of the world has been too much. But nutrition, trauma healing , and stopping drinking will make us so much more affective. Sending love to you guys❤️
Important to mention that unsweetened yogurt is best , as sugar is a huge toxin and yogurt can have huge amounts of sugar…thanks for mentioning about corn syrup.
