i stumbled onto this, my first podcast, by complete accident and i am very pleasantly shocked! having had chronic headaches for the past 26 years, i adopted the DASH diet about 3 years ago to reduce my pain, which it has done more than any medication i've ever been given.
i am enjoying the heck out of this podcast and can't wait to share it with my partner! you speak of everything we've learned.
i still can't believe i used to let my tastebuds and laziness decide what's best to eat!
one big change we've made that i would love to urge others to do is to boycott chain restaurants. they make everything at a factory and use salt as a preservative for shipping and storage. SUPPORT LOCAL RESTAURANTS!
