The Shut Your Monkey Approach to Nutrition is very simple
You can eat whatever you choose to eat.
We take an honest look at what foods you like and crunch the nutritional numbers analyzing the nutritional value of your habitual intake of food, beverages and supplements.
Rather than omitting any foods you love, we will actually add a variety of foods and beverages to balance your daily nutritional needs. It’s all about moderation and empowering your choices.
You can eat whatever you choose to eat.
