I love this video series so much. Think about all the undiscovered benefits of whole foods out there that are just waiting for someone do a study about them. Maybe we should start crowd-funding science so it’s not just profitable drugs and devices that get the research dollars. Though how much more research do we need to decide to start eating healthier.

In case you missed it, watch my last video that covers cervical ripening: Best Food for Late Pregnancy (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/best-food-for-late-pregnancy).
