How the Food Industry Is Feeding You Lies

Itโ€™s much easier to eat whatever youโ€™re craving without thinking much about it.

It takes energy and intention to figure out whatโ€™s actually in our food.

But making the effort to understand the ingredients we put in our body will help us take our life to the next level.

So why is it so hard?

The food industry is doing everything they can to keep chemicals in their food in order to increase shelf-life and keep you wanting more.

Unless youโ€™re making the effort to eat well, youโ€™ll be convinced by their marketing lies.

On todayโ€™s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk with an amazing woman who has bravely taken the giants of the food industry: Vani Hari.
