Powerful Quotes:
The Myth of Fake Food: "When you're putting stuff through that your body can't even recognize, has no clue what to do with it. Right? Fake food is fake food being healthy for you or for there being healthy alternatives to real food is 1 of the biggest myths out there."
— Belldon Colme
"This was probably the engineer in me from all those years in construction, but the only thing I had come up with is I need to find out how this works. If I could find out how my body worked, maybe there was a way I could work with it. And so I started diving into the body sciences and really centered on cellular biology because that made sense. How do my cells work in biochemistry? And it didn't take very long to start realizing that almost everything I had ever learned about how my body works and how food works was complete and total BS."
