Thanks for watching! Read all about Dr. Alan Goldhamer here 👉🏼http://bit.ly/richroll541 Dr. Goldhamer is the founder of TrueNorth Health Center — one of the first and largest facilities in the world that specialize in medically supervised water-only fasting -- where has overseen thousands of water fasts and helped patients radically transform their lives — from ditching medication to overcoming a litany of common but chronic lifestyle diseases. Today we talk all things water fasting, food addiction, whole plant diets, and the power of the body to heal. NOTE: Under no circumstances should anyone undertake a water-only fast of any length without the medical supervision of a trained professional. In other words, please do not try this at home. ✌🏼🌱 - Rich EPISODE 541 FULL AUDIO PODCAST Blog & Show Notes: http://bit.ly/richroll541 LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST Apple Podcasts: http://bit.ly/rrpitunes Spotify: http://bit.ly/rrpspotify Android: http://bit.ly/rrpgoogle DR.
