We’re thrilled to announce that Clean Plates was featured on the front page of today’s New York edition of The Huffington Post! Says author Nancy Marks, “Weight gain often occurs when we eat too much processed food; because our body is not getting the nutrients it needs, we develop various cravings and an inability to feel sated. This constant hunger makes us feel out of control and guilty rather than relaxed when it’s time to refuel and eat…Clean Plates suggests ways to eat organic so your body gets what it needs to function optimally and then you can throw that nasty tyrant out of your head and onto the street.” Cheers to that!
