Adele has had a keen interest in nutrition, health and wellness for the past decade ever since she was trying to figure out how to shed 60 pounds off of her body and improve her health in the process. That’s when she discovered how amazingly powerful low-carb diets can be as a therapeutic measure for people struggling with fixing their own health. She worked with the great Dr. Eric Westman in his Duke Lifestyle Medicine Clinic in Durham, North Carolina where she was responsible for educating patients on how to implement a low-carb lifestyle change to fix their obesity, Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and more. She is now pursuing multiple degrees in nutrition and public health as well as serving on the board of directors as the Executive Director of the Healthy Nation Coalition dedicated to redefining what the definition of “healthy” food in America is. Listen in to today’s episode as she reveals to Jimmy exactly how the government-recommended Dietary Guidelines are made and why it’s not really based on any relevant science. This one is an eye-opener for sure!

Great interview. Adele has a great story and makes a solid case for scrapping the current biased, if not completely corrupt, government-recommended Dietary Guidelines. Best of all, she is taking action!
And she’s super-passionate about making change happen. We need more people like her.
