Do you ever find yourself apologising for what you say before you say it? We've been conditioned not to get upset or rock the boat or challenge authority so that the people in power can stay in power. They feed us a kernel of truth hidden in a bucket of sh*t and expect us to swallow it. I, for one, am done eating sh*t. Join me this week as I challenge seven widely held beliefs that are designed to keep us from learning and sharing the truth about weight and healthcare.
