Wheat Zoomer and GI MAP: Summary
In this Wheat Zoomer and GI MAP episode of Lunch&Learn, two of the monthly sessions are now being dubbed ‘Lab&Learns’ to focus on more advanced, nerdy concepts. Evan introduces guest expert Whitney Morgan, founder of Whitney Morgan Nutrition, who specializes in advanced functional testing and root cause healing for women with thyroid issues such as Hashimoto’s and hypothyroidism.
