Mira!: The Latina'S Guide To Finally Losing Weight And Getting Healthy.

Mira! I'm trying to help you, ok! I write and talk about health and wellness all the time. It's pretty much my job. In a quest to find my target audience one day, I made a plea on twitter asking for help. Someone brought to my attention that I should specifically try to target Latinas. "No way." I thought, "These women are too hard headed." The truth is, I have been on a quest to help improve the health of Latinas for years. I have been watching friends and family members die. Not in the literally but over time, via Facebook. I was seeing pictures of women in my family aging way faster than they should be and get bigger and bigger by the selfie. I felt I had to do something so, I made the video "No Mas Tortillas." In this video I specifically targeted Latinas, pleading with them to make some changes to their diet. The video didn't go viral or anything but it did get some attention when I posted it on Facebook. People mostly found it entertaining more than anything else. Watch it. I'm hilarious. I felt like the women I was targeting got a good laugh but ignored my advice. Then, I got this post in response to the video: "You might be happy to know that, thanks to you, this Latina no longer eats tortillas, rice or beans, for a few years now! My body and digestion are so much better now! You're right, I do not want to suffer from the ailments my family did." Veronica. That's when I realized that I had gotten through to someone, that I had made a difference in someone's life. What if I could get through to someone else, even if it was just one more person? What if someone's mom, grandma or sister, took my advice and got healthy? I needed to press on with my quest, but how? Over the next couple months, Veronica shared my video with her mother and cousin. Both bought my book, The Complete Guide to Primitive Eating, and started the program. During a coaching call with Veronica, I had made a very valid point about weight loss that prompted her to ask, "Is that in your book?" It wasn't. That's when I knew I had to write this book. I had a blast writing this book. It allowed me to be creative and to learn a lot more about Latin American culture and the negative effects certain foods have on our bodies. And, because it came from the heart, it's good. The best thing I have written so far. In this book I am going to cover the following topics: - The harsh reality of your and your family's health - Agriculture in Latin America - Foods that are killing Latinas - Chronic Inflammation and Disease - Addressing your children's eating habits - An easy program to get healthy
