A gluten-free diet still allows you access to almost every fruit and vegetable, a variety of grains and legumes, your pick of dairy products, fresh meats and fish and a whole slew of special gluten-free delights to satisfy your pretzel-bagel-muffin-doughnut craving.

I didn't grow up eating meat - I was a vegetarian until I was 18.

Standards are what you hold for yourself, too. If I don't hold those standards with friends, colleagues, and lovers, I can't hold them to their relationships.

Exercise is important, but exercise in a gym is not important. Go and take a walk outside. Skip the umpteenth coffee date and go for a hike instead. Take the stairs. Walk your errands.

Food is medicine! We have forgotten that!

Growing up in my family, it wasn't important that we always be the best; it was important that we were going to try to be our best and give it our all.

I do what I do because my favorite thing is to learn.
