Hi and welcome to the Wellness Mama podcast.

I'm Katie from WellnessMama.com.

A random fact, did you know that fasting is an age old remedy that has been around since

even before biblical times?

In fact, Plato was famous for saying, I fast for greater physical and mental efficiency.

And today's guest knows quite a bit about that and pretty much everything else.

Abel James is a bestselling author, musician, speaker and entrepreneur.

He's a modern day Renaissance man.

He's had one of the number one rated health podcast in more than eight countries.

He's a bestselling author.

He has an award-winning web series, The Fat Burning Man, and he's helped millions of

people reclaim their health.

And he's here to talk to us today specifically about his new book The Wild Diet and how

it is specifically helpful and can be helpful to women and about fasting and intermittent

fasting and what the difference is for women.

So Abel, welcome and thank you so much for being here.

Thanks so much for having me, Katie.

Awesome.

Well, first I would love if you could tell us a little bit about your story because I know

people to know you now may think that you've always just had perfect, vibrant health.

And I know we've talked about your story.

So I know that's not the case, but I'd love to hear you tell your journey.
