Eating for health is one thing, but eating to beat disease is an even more intentional step toward prevention and longevity. I was so excited to sit down with internationally renowned physician, scientist, and author Dr. William Li to discuss how we can leverage food to optimize every system of the body.  We dig into: How Dr. Li got interested in “Food As Medicine” while developing cancer treatments  Why eating to beat disease is not the same as eating for health What food would Dr. Li bring with him if he was going to be stuck on an island? One thing Dr. Li knows everyone needs to do better Is dairy good or bad? What’s the deal with soy?  The 5 defense systems to support optimal health and Dr. Li’s 5 x 5 x 5 plan  We talk about this and so much more. I know you’ll love this conversation as much as I did!
