Unfortunately, that means the majority of our country is made of ultra-processed food-like substances that create disease. The good news, though, is that small dietary changes can have huge payoffs in a short amount of time.&nbsp;</p><br><p>My guest on today’s episode of The Doctor’s Farmacy has experienced the dramatic impacts of using food as medicine firsthand. At just 15, he broke his hip simply from running because his bones were so brittle from a diet void of nutrients. At 20, he was diagnosed with degenerative bone and disk disease. After just 9 months of revamping his diet to focus on whole foods, that diagnosis was completely reversed. Shawn Stevenson is here today to tell us how food affects our bodies on the deepest level and how we can eat smarter.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Shawn Stevenson is the author of the international bestselling book <em>Sleep Smarter</em> and creator of <em>The Model Health Show,</em> featured as the number #1 health podcast in the U.S. with millions of listener downloads each year.
