Nutritionally Speaking with Yaakov Levine | The Herbalist Hour Ep. 4

For Episode 4 of The Herbalist Hour, Mason and Amanda went to visit their friend Yaakov Levine at the Natural Grocers in Eugene, OR. 

Mason has known Yaakov for many years now. They'd frequently see each other at various herb conferences and natural foods events.

Yaakov is a nutrition health coach and expert, and was gracious enough to sit down with Mason to answer YOUR questions. 

We polled the HerbRally audience to see if you had any nutrition questions and you all came through! There were about 125 questions that came in. 

Of course, Yaakov couldn't answer every single one in this interview, but he did manage to get to about a dozen of 'em. Perhaps we'll have a round two with him. 

We hope you enjoy this interview as much as we enjoyed making it! 

FYI: The title of this episode is an homage to a weekly column Yaakov used to write for the newspaper called "Nutritionally Speaking".
