He specializes in helping this clients boost their self-love, self-esteem, and self-confidence so they can transform their bodies and live a happy, healthy life. In his own words: For Years I lived my life behind a façade. Growing up with Cerebral Palsy and Epilepsy, I always struggled with self-confidence and body image issues. I was bullied, teased, and made fun of which only lead to weight gain and other underlying health problems down the road. I would come home from school and find comfort in food, and television, not letting anyone know about my pain. This continued on throughout my middle school years. By the time I was 15 years old I had a cholesterol level of 290, I weighed 210 pounds and I had chronic heart burn. I had to make a change! I needed to start taking responsibility for my life to make a better future. I began reading anything that I could get my hands on about diet and nutrition. I studied all of the exercise books, and with the help of my dad I was able to get myself into a gym to work out and start feeling healthy! I put all of my energy into reaching my goal, and in the end I lost 80lbs! I got my cholesterol from 290 down to a healthy 150, and I had zero heartburn. Was I healthier? Yes. Was I happy? Maybe…I may have lost weight, had lower cholesterol, no more heartburn, and I wasn't being bullied anymore,but something was missing. I still saw a disabled person in the mirror. This would continue for 14 more years until I had the most life changing event of my existence, and caused me to see things and my situation in a whole new perspective. On September 10, 2012 I had a seizure that was completely out of the ordinary. After spending two weeks in the hospital for testing, my doctors informed me that my seizure was a result of excessive stress. This time I really needed to make a change, not in my eating habits, not in my exercise, but in myself! Over the course of the next six months I read, I meditated, and I posted daily affirmations on my refrigerator, on my bedroom mirror, and on Facebook, and I finally started to see myself differently. I began to realize that there is so much more to myself and my life than just a physical disability or seizure disorder. I was Daniel, and I AM unique and unique is AWESOME! One year later on February 5, 2013, I had a surgery that had the potential to make me 80% seizure free, but I would lose total use of my left side. After much testing and consideration, I decided to go for it. I came out of the surgery still having seizures, but I regained use of my left side, and have more mental focus and clarity. Am I grateful? Absolutely! When we choose acceptance of our life's reality our world completely changes. See the good with the bad and let the two lead you down the path you were meant to travel. I received my education from the Global Institute for Alternative Medicine in 2002 and from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in 2010 where I was trained in many nutritional mo...

Liz Wolfe of Realfoodliz.com talks to Leigh and Wendy about her new book, Eat the Yolks, a hilarious take on eating real food that bashes many health myths pervading our food culture. She is also cohosts one of the top ten health podcasts on iTunes and one of my favorites, the Balanced Bites Podcast. Transcript Click here to view the full transcript for #48 Why you need to eat the yolks with Liz Wolfe. About Liz Wolfe Liz Wolfe, of Realfoodliz.com, is a Real Food lover, an amateur homesteader, a natural skincare enthusiast, and a published author. Most importantly, she's got goats. Liz is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) certified by the Nutritional Therapy Association. She co-hosts the top-rated Balanced Bites podcast. She has a regular column in Paleo Magazine. She wrote the Skintervention Guide, based around her experiences healing longstanding skin issues. She's a city gal who went from CrossFit n’ Paleo to Farm Fit n’ homesteading. After spending 4 years in New Jersey, Liz, the Husband and the Pooch moved “back home” to a 15-acre homestead in the midwest. They’ve got goats, chickens, guinea fowl, stray puppies, and lots of crazy wildlife, and soon, 2 hogs. She and her husband are trying to be more sustainable and less stressed, and we’re working on producing as much of their own Real Food as possible. Her New Book! Worry about cholesterol. Avoid red meat. Eat whole grains. Could it all be a lie? We live in an era of health hype and nutrition propaganda, and we’re suffering for it. Decades of avoiding egg yolks, choosing margarine over butter, and replacing the real foods of our ancestors with low-fat, processed, packaged substitutes have left us with an obesity epidemic, ever-rising rates of chronic disease, and, above all, total confusion about what to eat and why.This is a tragedy of misinformation, food industry shenanigans, and cheap calories disguised as health food. It turns out that everything we’ve been told about how to eat is wrong. Fat and cholesterol are harmful to your health? Nope—they are crucial to your health. “Whole grains” are health food? Not even close. Counting calories is the way to lose weight? Not gonna work—nutrients are what matter. Nutrition can come from a box, bag, or capsule? Don’t count on it! In Eat the Yolks, Liz Wolfe debunks all these myths and more, revealing what’s behind the lies and bringing the truth about fat, cholesterol, protein, and carbs to light. You’ll be amazed at the tall tales we’ve been told in the name of “healthy eating.” With wit and grace, Wolfe makes a compelling argument for a diet based on Paleo foods. She takes us back to the foods of our ancestors, combining the lessons of history with those of modern science to uncover why real, whole food—the kind humans ate for thousands of years before modern nutrition dogma led us astray—holds the key to amazing health and happy taste buds. In Eat the Yolks, Liz Wolfe doesn’t just make a case for eating the whole egg. She uncovers the shocking lies we’ve been told about fat, cholesterol, protein, carbs, and calories and brings us the truth about which foods are healthy—and which foods are really harming us. You’ll learn truths like: fat and cholesterol are crucial, not harmful . . . and why - “whole grains” are processed foods . . . and what to eat instead . . .counting calories is a waste of energy and what we actually should be tracking. . . all animal products are not created equal and which ones we truly need . . . nutrition doesn’t come in a box, bag, or capsule . . . and why there’s no substitute for real food! Her Old Book Countless people around the world struggle with skin and body issues of all kinds: acne, eczema, psoriasis, scarring, weak hair and nails, and – most importantly – frustration with commercial products filled with unnecessary, harsh chemicals. Not to mention the confusing territory of dealing with cellulite, anti-aging strategies, intimate care,
