This week we are talking about Mindful Eating & how Stress affects the body physiologically.
There is science to back the benefits of developing a process of mindful eating. From stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system to "rest & digest" to being in the moment around others when you eat.

With me to talk about this is Dr. Dwayne Jackson PhD. who holds a doctorate in Biophysics,
He has run various labs as a director, studied at Yale University & is also Head of Education for HD Muscle & Head of Nutrition Education for Pre-Script. This man has an academic resume that is laughably long.
