Herbie of the Week: Eileen (Lost weight, stopped taking meds, improved overall health) Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Herbies

I miss the Herbie of the Week series too.

Meet our Herbie of the Week: Annija!

By going dairy-free and eating more whole, plant foods Annija was able to cure all of her skin issues and eliminate the painful bloating that plagued her daily.

Annija story reminds me SO MUCH of my own! Like me, Annija knew she wanted to change but she didn't know where to begin--and she didn't even know how to cook! (True, I didn't either!!)

Inspired by her boyfriend and his family's healthy habits, Annija …
