Kate Deering is the author of How to Heal Your Metabolism (if you haven’t already, definitely give it a read!). We recommend this book to all of our clients.One of the big key topics in Kate’s book is sugar. Sugar comes with so many misconceptions. Some people think sugar is poison, that it causes cancer, creates inflammation, and more. And I used to think the same thing; I wouldn’t even eat fruit because I was so brainwashed into thinking sugar was bad for me, but I didn’t understand why.So, in this episode, Kate and I get to the bottom of it all.
