Your present circumstances don’t determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start. –Nido Qubein

Today’s guest is board certified adult psychiatrist with a clinical practice in Massachusetts, and Harvard Medical School professor Dr. Emily Deans.

In this episode we discuss:

* Why food is neither the only cure nor the cause of all modern illness

* Why some anorexics choose certain diets in recovery

* What orthorexia looks like in the Paleo and Primal community

And more!
