Summary

How can understanding the secret biological and emotional connections hidden deep inside our fat help us let go of  old weight, discover individual wellness, and rekindle a trusted relationship with our body?

On this episode of Wellness Force Radio, biochemist and author of  The Secret Life of Fat, Dr. Sylvia Tara teaches us why fat is such a complex endocrine organ that can control our minds and how we can use that knowledge to our advantage for weight loss and more energy.

There is no one-size fits-all  weight loss plan because our age, gender, genetics, as well as bacteria and viruses all play a role.

Forget everything that you thought you knew about fat and discover how you can create an individual approach to losing weight and loving the skin you're in.
