A U.S. Air Force veteran, she spent years doing what health experts consider “all the right things” to lose weight and stay optimally healthy, but unfortunately, the results she expected did not materialize.</p> <p>Wanting to understand why the conventional advice of low-calorie, low-fat diets and exercise was not delivering the expected results, she did some research and found that the majority of current 'healthy diets' are unhealthy to the core.</p> <p>After having gone through a tough school herself, she started to make it clear to others that to become radiantly healthy, it is not necessary to starve yourself, deny yourself everything or spend day and night in the gym.</p>
