Key Takeaways:
“Exercise is amazing. Don’t get me wrong, it is vital. It is vital, particularly in aging, but right from, you know, from birth, we’re made to move like humans, our heart health and, you know, for our overall immune health, which is so important at the moment, it is really important to exercise.” – Siobhan Dee
“Don’t eat between meals, just eat three meals a day, you don’t need to do any more than that. And when you are eating, eat food from the farm, not from the factory. Eat real food three times a day, and just see where it comes from that really.” – Siobhan Dee
