Since we were kids we would eat anything and everything. It didn’t matter, if it looked good and smelled good, we were eating it. Sometimes it didn’t have to look good or smell good, and we would still eat it. However that story is for another time.

As we got older we continued to eat like that into our twenties and thirties. However, we just don’t bounce back like we used to and we start to feel a little different physically. We start to feel sluggish and fatigued.
