What's going on TGL family? How are you?

Welcome to another episode of the Genius Life in your host Max Lugov,

your film maker, health and science journalist in the author of the New York Times

bestselling book Genius Foods and the Genius Life.

I'm so thrilled to share today's episode with you guys.

In this episode I chat with my good friend Ashley Van Houten.

Ashley is a health and nutrition journalist, speaker, podcast host,

certified health coach, and self-proclaimed health and fitness nerd.

And as you know, I always love chatting with a fellow nerd.

Ashley is a true paleo mastermind with a passion for organ meets.

And lucky for us she's compiled her expansive knowledge into a new book,

It Takes Guts.

A Meet Eaters Guide to Eating Oful with over 75 healthy and delicious nose-to-tail recipes.

It contains hilarious and thoughtful anecdotes on a cultural, environmental,

and health benefits of adding a little variety to your diet.

Our conversation is meaty, no pun intended, with all kinds of actionable information.

You won't want to miss it.

Ashley and I also tackle the largely misunderstood category that is organ meet.
