Is your relationship with food or your body complicated? Do you struggle with body confidence and self-love? You might be surprised about how many aspects of life are impacted by your body image. Wondering if you can truly love your body? Spoiler alert: you can! In this Salad with a Side of Fries episode, Marla Mervis-Hartmann, a dynamic speaker, bestselling author, and coach specializing in body confidence, self-love, and intuitive eating joins the show. Together, Marla and Jenn dive deep into healing a challenged relationship with your body, breaking free from diet culture and disordered eating, and embracing true self-acceptance. Marla shares powerful insights on shifting away from food restriction and guilt, learning to trust your body, and fostering a sustainable, positive mindset around food and body image. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [3:40] Marla reveals how she began her focus on healing her body image [10:07] How negative body image can show up in our lives [19:20] Listening to your body and befriending yourself [25:52] Choosing the road of self-compassion and acceptance [30:48] Reframing your perception of your body image KEY TAKEAWAYS: People believe reaching a certain weight or body shape will bring them happiness and confidence, but true healing comes from addressing deeper emotional and psychological factors, not just physical appearance. How we feel about our bodies can impact our relationships, work, self-worth, and ability to be present. It can lead to comparison, avoidance of opportunities, and even withholding joy from ourselves. Recognizing and challenging diet culture, societal pressures, and past traumas is crucial for improving body image. Developing self-compassion, addressing underlying emotional wounds, and reframing our relationship with food and our bodies are key steps to healing. Finding a balanced, self-compassionate approach to body acceptance and eating is essential. Instead of rigid dieting allow for self-acceptance, mindful choices, and kindness toward oneself—much like a best friend offering support. QUOTES: [6:10] “I needed deep help with this. So that's what took me on this journey of recovery, of healing my relationship with my body and my food.” Marla Mervis-Hartmann [9:44] “We can be so mean to ourselves, the things that we say in our head compared to what we would never say out loud to someone else, but we say them to ourselves.” Jenn Trepeck [25:09] “If you're hearing this right now, that moment when something shows up and maybe it's not even around your food and your body, perhaps it's about something completely different, that you just have this seed of wisdom that says, ‘Let's be kind to me here’.” Marla Mervis-Hartmann [29:21] “I would try to walk beside someone in a window to see our reflection, because I was like ‘She's thin, am I as thin as her?’, and then I would compare myself.” Marla Mervis-Hartmann [32:48] “And now, what can I do for myself? Even if we ask it instead of what we would say to a friend, and now ‘what can I do for you?’ say, ‘what can I do for me?’ I love that question.” Jenn Trepeck [36:26] “We're having this conversation and we say ‘their body is okay for them, but their body would not be OK for me’. That disconnect, then, ask the following question: ‘Why is it okay for them and not for you? What's the other thing they have that makes it alright that I don't have that makes it not OK?’” Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries Jenn’s Free Menu Plan A Salad With a Side of Fries A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram GUEST RESOURCES: Love Your Body Love Yourself - Book Breaking the Cycle - Free Gift Love Your Body Love Yourself - Website TEDx Talk: The Secret Ingredient to Feeling Good in Your Body Be-Friend Yourself - Book Marla Mervis-Hartmann- Instagram Love Your Body Love Yourself - Facebook Marla Mervis-Hartmann - YouTube GUEST BIOGRAPHY: Marla Mervis-Hartmann is a dynamic speaker, bestselling author, and coach specializing in body confidence, food freedom, and self-love.

How much mental space does food take up in your life? Do you feel trapped by food rules, guilt, or the pressure to eat a certain way? Let’s put on our curiosity hats to explore our relationship with food. In this Salad with a Side of Fries episode, Jenn Trepeck discusses our important relationship with food. From food triggers and guilt-free eating to breaking free from restrictive diets or mindsets, Jenn explores how our thoughts about food impact our daily lives. Plus, she highlights why seeking support can be a game-changer in creating a healthier, more balanced mindset around eating and relationship with food. Tune in next week for the second part of this discussion diving into body image with a special guest! The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [1:51] Exploring our relationship with food, body shape and being food aware [11:29] Food triggers, guilt-free eating, and the time spent thinking about food [16:28] Food restrictions, One Meal a Day (OMAD), fear food and a discussion on eating disorders [26:22] Judging ourselves for food choices and how we can redirect these feelings [27:40] What a balanced relationship with food looks like [33:20] Exercise, activity choices and wearables KEY TAKEAWAYS: Many people recall becoming aware of their body size and food choices at a young age, often influenced by family, social environments, and cultural messaging. Restrictive eating patterns are deeply ingrained behaviors influenced by diet culture. These habits contribute to an unhealthy relationship with food, highlighting the importance of re-evaluating these mindsets for overall well-being. Food choices may be driven by fear, competition, or guilt. Instead of restricting, skipping meals, or yo-yo dieting, a balanced approach involves recognizing hunger and satiety, eating various nourishing foods, and honoring your body's needs without anxiety. A balanced lifestyle allows for flexibility—being able to eat at any restaurant without stress, working out without obsessing over steps or missing a day, and removing labels like "good" or "bad" from food choices. The key is self-awareness and making mindful choices rather than engaging in self-sabotage or comparison. QUOTES: [9:44] “The first time I felt I had to watch what I ate was between high school and college. - Jenn Trepeck [14:11] “If we are choosing not to have social plans because we don't want to eat out, or we don't want to eat around other people, we are isolating. We want to look at our relationship to that. - Jenn Trepeck [15:40] “What we learn through the Healthy Vibe Tribe and what I learned that completely changed my life is that it's not actually about the calories. It's about what calories are made of.” -Jenn Trepeck. [2.0:06] “Are we eating to avoid something?” Jenn Trepeck [27:05] “What does a more balanced relationship, a healthier relationship with food, look like? It means eating in a way that nourishes your body and your mind. Guilt and anxiety are not present. It means recognizing hunger and satiety and fullness.” Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries Jenn’s Free Menu Plan A Salad With a Side of Fries A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram Cr-Cr-Cr-Cravings Dry Beyond January - Part One Dry Beyond January - Part Two…

Feel like “healthy foods” have little flavor? Have you ever considered the energy your food carries and how it impacts your overall well-being? These are both a function of the quality of the ingredients and even the way you prepare your meals. Whether you consider yourself a home chef or someone who’s better off leaving the kitchen to others, this episode is for you In this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck sits down with Chef Whitney Aronoff, founder of High Vibration Foods, to explore how the food we choose influences our physical health and our emotional and spiritual balance. From selecting fresh, in-season ingredients to understanding the power of ancestral diets, Chef Aronoff shares her journey of holistic healing through understanding food. This conversation dives deep into the concept of high-vibration food—what it is, why it matters, and how you can incorporate it into your daily life. Jenn and Whitney discuss everything from food industry pitfalls and shopping for healthy ingredients to the benefits of soaking grains and investing in quality kitchen tools. Plus, Chef Aronoff reveals how simple changes in food preparation can enhance digestion and nutrient absorption. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry.

KEY TAKEAWAYS: Food is sustenance and energy influencing our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Eating high-vibration, fresh, and in-season foods can enhance overall health and balance.

Soaking grains, nuts, and certain foods before consumption can improve digestion, reduce allergens, and enhance nutrient absorption. This simple preparation step can make foods easier on the body and maximize their health benefits. Investing in high-quality kitchen equipment and fresh, organic ingredients enhances the cooking experience and improves food quality, taste, and overall health. QUOTES: “When you eat more fresh and seasonal food, you feel lighter, you feel fresher, you need less of it because it's transferring more energy to you.” Whitney Aronoff [6:48] “I wanted to learn how my ancestors ate traditionally. Because that fueled them and allowed them to live long, healthy lives and for their offspring to prosper.” Whitney Aronoff [12:54] “Eating is a transfer of energy. What we consume impacts our physical, mental, emotional, spiritual health, like every aspect of health.” - Jenn Trepeck [32:52] “You can Google, I live [here], what fruits and vegetables are in season right now.” - Jenn Trepeck [ 34:56] ”Blanching and roasting are my go-to's when I feel like I'm making food versus cooking because cooking is a ton of pots and pans and a ton of ingredients.” - Jenn Trepeck [37:57] “I think spices are one of those ingredients similar to oil where people don't understand that it should be one ingredient; you expect it to be one ingredient, so we don't read the label.” Jenn Trepeck [43:01] “The quality of the ingredients creates the quality of the food experience in eating it and tasting it; the quality of our energy and our lives.” Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries Jenn’s Free Menu Plan A Salad With a Side of Fries A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram Fats, Plants and Us SheMD Website SheMD on Spotify SheMD on YouTube GUEST RESOURCES: Whitney Aronoff - Instagram Starseed Kitchen - Website High Vibration Living - Podcast High Vibration Foods GUEST BIOGRAPHY: Chef Whitney is a personal chef who crafts custom meal plans for clients, guiding them toward their best lives and is the founder of High Vibration Foods.

Use Your Heart Rate Monitor to Improve Your Health (feat. Torkil Færø) 46:27

Have you ever wondered how much your body is telling you—and what you might be missing? Could looking at one more metric from your wearable device, like heart rate variability (HRV), unlock the secrets to better sleep, reduced stress, and improved overall health? In this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck welcomes Dr. Torkil Færø, a GP, emergency physician, author of The Pulse Cure , and advocate for the transformative power of wearables in health optimization. Torkil shares his journey of exploring devices like Whoop and Garmin to uncover hidden stressors, track heart rate variability (HRV), and make meaningful lifestyle changes that dramatically improve health. From understanding the connection between HRV and chronic stress to identifying surprising factors like late-night meals and alcohol that impact sleep and recovery, this conversation dives deep into how wearables can enhance our understanding of the body. Dr. Færø also discusses HRV’s role in improving PMS symptoms, offers actionable advice for boosting HRV, and explains why personalized data is key to unlocking better health. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [6:04] Dr. Færø explains why he began to focus on wearables [11:26] Humans can’t sense our inner stress levels [14:55] Heart rate numbers are individual, and the connection between low heart rate and disease [23:34] Unexpected sources of stress and the sleep connection [29:21] How heart rate variability can improve PMS symptoms [32:45] Dr. Faero gives advice to see improvement in heart rate variability KEY TAKEAWAYS: HRV is a powerful tool for tracking stress and overall health. By using wearables to monitor HRV, individuals can learn how lifestyle choices—like diet, alcohol intake, and exercise—affect their bodies. A higher HRV typically reflects a restful, adaptive state, while a lower HRV may indicate chronic stress or other concerns. Notably, the focus is on individual patterns and baselines rather than comparing numbers with others, ensuring a personalized approach to health tracking. Wearables can uncover hidden stressors, like inflammatory foods or alcohol, that traditional medical training can overlook. By making informed changes, such as reducing alcohol intake, eating earlier dinners, and incorporating stress management techniques like breathwork or cold plunges. These tools serve as a modern extension of human senses, allowing users to “listen” to their bodies in ways evolution never equipped us for. Eating late or consuming alcohol can lower heart rate variability (HRV), resulting in less restorative sleep, even if total sleep hours are unchanged. To improve sleep quality, it’s essential to wind down 1–2 hours before bedtime through calming activities like meditation, dimming lights, and avoiding late-night meals or alcohol. Additionally, keeping the bedroom cool (around 67–68°F) enhances sleep quality, as seen through wearable HRV data. Wearables provide insight into stress and health management. Devices like Whoop and Garmin track HRV, offering data on recovery, stress levels, and readiness for physical or mental exertion. This information can help prevent burnout by signaling when stress levels are unsustainable and encouraging proactive adjustments like yoga, better sleep habits, or dietary changes. For women, these wearables have even been used to manage PMS symptoms by identifying stress patterns and adjusting activities accordingly. QUOTES: [7:02] “I understood that there was a metric called heart rate variability that could show and track these improvements. So if I did something good for my health, that will be revealed in the heart rate.” Dr. Færø [10:36] “Heart rate variability essentially shows the time between heartbeats. We want that number to be higher, right? When that number is higher, there's greater variability between those heartbeats, it's a sign of the body being in a restful state where it can adapt to whatever is coming at us.” Jenn Trepeck [12:28] “I think the piece that's really important for all of us is to recognize is the body can be in a stress response, even when we don't intellectually register stress.” - Jenn Trepeck [24:35] “Heart rate variability and sleep are intimately connected.” - Jenn Trepeck [35:20] “Breathe slowly; nobody will notice if you're in a meeting, or if you're on a phone call. Slow down your breath, and close your eyes so that throughout the day, you calm your nervous system down.” Dr. Færø [37:06] “It's only when you get sick, that's when your health depends on your wallet.” Dr. Færø "It's like you have a speedometer for your physiology." - Torkil Færø RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries Jenn’s Free Menu Plan A Salad With a Side of Fries A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram SheMD Website SheMD on Spotify SheMD on YouTube GUEST RESOURCES: The Pulse Cure - Website Torkil Faero - Instagram Torkil Faero - Facebook Torkil Faero - LinkedIn GUEST BIOGRAPHY: Dr. Torkil Færø is a GP, emergency physician, documentary filmmaker, author, and photographer. Over a 26-year career as a freelance doctor, he has worked all over Norway, had a hundred thousand consultations and thus gained a unique picture of the diseases that plague us. He learned that the cause is most often found in the stresses our lifestyles place on our bodies. When his father died at 73, he realized that he had to change his lifestyle. Being 40 pounds overweight, under-trained, over-stressed, under-slept and drinking alcohol daily, he learned that this lifestyle could deprive him of decades. He found a way to track and regulate his nervous system and physiology using wearables. Færø is an award-winning photographer and author of The Camera Cure and has made TV films about his pilgrimages to Nidaros and Santiago de Compostela. An inveterate traveler, he has visited over 80 countries and speaks eight languages. He lives in Norway.…

Do you or someone you know suffer from eczema? Then you’ll know that steroid prescriptions are what most doctors prescribe as treatment. But what if there is a holistic approach that focuses on nutrition, gut health, and environmental factors, that can help tackle the root cause? Listen in for practical ways to get started healing from the inside out, and the outside in. In today’s episode of Salad With a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck welcomes Andra McHugh, host of The Eczema Kids Podcast, to share her personal journey with her children’s eczema struggles and how she turned them into a mission to help others. They discuss holistic approaches to managing eczema, from food choices and digestive health to creating a non-toxic home environment. Andra emphasizes the importance of commitment and community support in healing, offering practical steps for long-term success. Don’t miss Andra’s exclusive offer for Salad with a Side of Fries Members of $400 off her five-piece eczema elimination method for the Salad with a Side of Fries community.

Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [4:44] Andra’s story of how her children suffered from eczema [7:58] The difference between skin irritation and eczema and getting to the root cause [11:21] A discussion on skin care to manage the discomfort of symptoms and addressing the root cause along with the support of community [18:10] Step one is commitment, no matter what, for 90 days [20:28] Andra suggests spices and other food choices and food groups and eating for ultimate digestion [25:32] Eating seasonal foods foods and crops [27:38] Tips for making your home non-toxic [34:08] Treating eczema holistically one step at a time KEY TAKEAWAYS: Severe eczema in children can be challenging to manage with conventional treatments, such as steroid prescriptions. A holistic approach focuses on healing from the root cause rather than simply managing symptoms. This includes addressing underlying issues such as gut health, diet, and environmental factors while making small, consistent changes for long-term healing. Food combinations and digestion-focused diets are essential for gut health, eczema, and other skin conditions. For example, grains can be soaked in lemon water and cooked in an Instapot to reduce lectins and promote digestion. Focusing on digestion can help with conditions like eczema, as the digestive system plays a key role in nutrient absorption and symptom management. Creating a non-toxic home environment is vital for holistic eczema healing. This includes using natural cleaners (e.g., tea tree oil and vinegar), reducing EMF exposure, and addressing potential mold and water quality issues. Switching from plastic to glass or stainless steel in the kitchen, eliminating toxic chemicals from household items, and focusing on non-toxic materials for clothing can significantly improve eczema symptoms. QUOTES: [8:53] “Eczema is an autoimmune, right? It's an inflammatory condition, essentially. It stems from the gut.

Like so many things in wellness, it’s easier said than done to live alcohol free. If you’ve tried before or are curious about sober living, this episode is for you! It’s the practical side of how to unlock unexpected health benefits, stronger connections, and a clearer mind. Today on Salad With a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck continues to explore the thought-provoking idea of living "Dry Beyond January" with Gillian Tietz, MS, CAMS-I, host of the Sober Powered podcast and a sobriety and anger management coach. Jenn and Gill discuss the challenges and rewards of embracing an alcohol-free lifestyle, from tackling cravings and navigating social settings to finding deeper connections and breaking the cycle of shame that often comes from drinking. Whether you’re taking a break from alcohol or considering sobriety for the long haul, you’ll discover strategies to manage triggers, build healthier habits, and redefine your relationship with drinking. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [6:20] To drink, or not to drink [9:41] Reversing shame and judgment and shared experiences [12:56] Pros and cons of a Dry January [15:10] Navigating a sober weekend [18:55] Connecting with non-drinkers and dating while sober [28:41] Strategies for communicating going alcohol-free [30:57] Ordering Alcohol-free drinks with caution [35:14] Avoiding triggers and habits and creating new enjoyable memories without alcohol [38:53] The National Helpline is 800-662-HELP KEY TAKEAWAYS: Connecting with others in sober communities is critical for overcoming the shame spiral from drinking. Sharing experiences and hearing “I struggle with that, too" from your peers can help you realize you are not alone and break the isolation cycle. People often underestimate the unexpected challenges of quitting drinking, such as fatigue that persists for weeks and doubts about the payoff. These moments of struggle can lead to thoughts of giving up or attempting moderation. Patience and understanding the long-term benefits are essential to living dry beyond January. For those who choose not to drink, strategies include discreetly blending in, such as ordering non-alcoholic drinks that resemble alcoholic ones, setting clear boundaries early in dating or social scenarios and avoiding habits and triggers that increase your desire or cravings to drink. Successfully navigating cravings and triggers involves strategies beyond willpower, such as changing your environment, identifying emotional triggers, and reflecting on past behaviors to plan better responses. QUOTES: [6:42] “If you're wondering if you can, then you are somebody that can't moderate their drinking. I think it's just as simple as that. Like people that can moderate just do and live their lives.” - Gill Tietz [8:43]” Because when you think of an alcoholic, you think of a weak-willed loser who ruined their whole life because they like to drink too much, they're selfish, all of that kind of stuff. And many of us know that's not true, but that's the general public’s perception. So, I was afraid of being labeled as an alcoholic and judged.” Gill Tietz [12:19] “The difference though, is that people could go the rest of their life without drinking. People can't go the rest of their life without eating.” Jenn Trepeck. [31:00] “I think more and more now, there are so many more non-alcoholic options on bar menus or in restaurant menus and certainly so many more in stores.” Jenn Trepeck [33:20] “I think it's such a valid point to recognize that we have that biochemical response, we have that craving, that reward pathway that still exists, even if we're not always feeding it. And that some of these other things can end up feeding that same pathway.” Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries Jenn’s Free Menu Plan A Salad With a Side of Fries A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram The Truth About Alcohol You Are Not Alone: Relapse Rate GUEST RESOURCES: Sober Powered - Podcast Sober Powered - Website Sober Powered - Instagram GUEST BIOGRAPHY: Gillian Tietz, MS, CAMS-I, hosts the Sober Powered Podcast and is a sobriety and anger management coach.

Do you ever wonder how your life might improve if you stopped drinking, even for a little while? From better sleep to clearer thinking and enhanced emotional well-being, the benefits might surprise you! Today, Jenn dives into the thought-provoking idea of being Dry Beyond January. The positive changes that can come from reducing or being alcohol-free and how this choice aligns with creating a healthier, more balanced lifestyle may surprise you. This is part one of a two-part series exploring the impact of alcohol on our health and well-being. Jenn breaks down the physical, emotional, and social benefits of cutting back or quitting alcohol entirely and shares strategies to make the process approachable and sustainable. Whether you’re considering a dry month or a long-term change, this episode will help you take the first step with confidence. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [4:43] Moderate drinking versus heavy drinking and how each impacts us [9:29] Alcohol’s impact on mood, brain chemistry and sleep deprivation [12:41] Other associated risks and our brain's ability to build pathways [14:28] Stress-related drinking [17:48] Short-term benefits of being alcohol-free and withdrawal symptoms [24:33] Long-term benefits of not drinking alcohol [30:09] Alcohol depletes electrolytes and dehydrates us, creating physical signs of aging [33:05] Discussion of how much money Americans spend each year on alcohol KEY TAKEAWAYS: Alcohol significantly affects the liver, brain, and sleep patterns. The liver prioritizes processing alcohol over other toxins, leading to delayed toxin removal and issues like inflammation. Alcohol also suppresses REM sleep and causes sleep disruptions like overheating, which can have cascading effects on mood, energy, and overall health. Alcohol triggers dopamine release, creating a memory of the triggers leading up to drinking. This reinforces habits, making the brain associate stress or other cues with seeking alcohol, which can perpetuate a cycle of dependency. The short—and long-term health benefits of being alcohol-free are significant and varied. Eliminating alcohol can lead to immediate improvements, such as better sleep, clearer skin, weight loss, improved digestion, and mental clarity. In the long term, it reduces the risk of liver disease, heart disease, stroke, and certain cancers while enhancing cognitive function and life expectancy. Alcohol depletes electrolytes, causes dehydration, and overburdens organs like the liver and kidneys. However, the liver can regenerate and recover, often within weeks to months, depending on the extent of the damage.

It prioritizes the alcohol out of our system, which pushes down the priority list other toxins and things like sugar and fats.” - Jenn Trepeck [12:41] “Alcohol activates GABA receptors in the brain, which slows down neuron communication. We feel relaxed, but really, the brain has just slowed down.” - Jenn Trepeck [14:01] “Drinking creates dopamine. With dopamine, there's a memory of the experience encoded in the brain. What's encoded in the brain is also what led you to the alcohol that triggers it. So whether that's the emotion that led you there, the stressful situation, the part that's encoded, is that trigger.” - Jenn Trepeck [26:56] “When we reduce the inflammation, because the alcohol caused the inflammation, we see a decreased risk factor of virtually every sickness, illness, disease, or symptom. - Jenn Trepeck [35:54] “When there's the presence of alcohol, there is greater conflict.” - Jenn Trepeck…
