BEST MOMENTS

"Because this body of ours is such a sophisticated machine, the inputs are the nutrients that it actually looks for because they play such a crucial role."

"So everything boils down to diet. And I say this a lot of times to people, if you break down the mechanisms of your body, and then the body does not produce what it's supposed to produce, you're going to feel something that the doctor will say is a disease."

"So, you really need to have fruits and vegetables and proteins and fats. You really need to get all of these nutrients in because the body absolutely needs them to be able to function."

"Please stay away from dairy products as your calcium intake. Don't do it. You're going to suffer."
