Anyone else read her book & followed her principles? I have just finished reading it and thought it was fantastic. Makes a lot of good sense!
For those of you who don't know, the book is written by Biochemist, Dr Libby Weaver who writes whyyou should be looking after your body and how you should do so and the book teaches you how your body works. For some this may seem a little elementary,but I think it is really important to remember how amazing our bodies are and that we should stop feeding it crap, get rid of our bad habits and start respecting it the way our bodies really deserve. . Anyway, I started the thread because I was wondering if anyone here has followed her principles and had success?

I have just listened to her Ted Talk and another youtube where she was on MNB. She's great. I am going to get her book. I am presently working with a Naturopath to help heal my body from severe adrenal fatigue. Everything Dr. Libby said was exactly what was happening with my body. Very interesting. I have been waiting forever to hear what she is saying.0

Please be careful
Adrenal fatigue is an invented illness that is commonly "diagnosed" by "naturopaths"
There is no scientific basis for it as a condition ...that is simply not how the adrenal glands work. The endocrine society even brought out a fact sheet on this years ago
I do not doubt your symptoms are very real, just be careful how much money you throw at this naturopath0
