Disclaimer: I’m not a doctor, dietitian, or wizard. Just a curious human sharing my experience eating whole food, plant-based for a week. Always do your own research, listen to your body, and talk to a professional before making big changes. Especially if it involves more kale than you're used to. 🌱 🙃
