Ep 7: Nutrition expert healed her menstrual cycle, gut, and cystic acne... and later changed my life

In today’s episode, we speak with nutrition expert and co-host Anna Zhanay about her health journey and origin story. 

Anna shares how she became plant-based, her struggles with her skin and confidence, and the core tenets of living a healthy life. 

You'll learn the guiding principle that rules Anna's life (that you can adopt too), why pharmaceuticals overpromise and underdeliver, and how to use plants correctly. 

- Anna's background and growing up in a small village
- Her health challenges and being always sick as a child
- Losing her period, gut challenges, and painful cystic acne
- Learning about a plant-based diet (then, things got worse)
- The fork in the road decision to fully commit to healing or stay stuck 
- Her philosophy towards health and why health is the first wealth
- The power of raw vegan foods and how to unlock deeper health 
- Using critical thinking when it comes to health-based decisions 
- Why health can sometimes get worse before it gets better for true healing
- The principle of full ownership and how it can transform your health (forever)
