Eating Like a Human: Beverly Meyer on Food First, Paleo, and Wellness Wisdom
Q: What shaped your philosophy of 'food first' and how do you apply it to helping people improve their health?
Beverly explains that personal health struggles, a long history with viruses, and observing how diet and lifestyle impact symptoms led her to focus on food first, emphasize whole, nutrient-dense foods, and guide patients to test and optimize their own biology rather than relying on quick pharmaceutical fixes.
