And at the time growing up, I didn't know how good I had it because I was looking at all my friends, you know, eating all their junk food.

So that's exactly me.

Well, and this is what I tell parents because I see so much pushback online.

A lot of parents saying, oh, you're depriving your kids.

You're going to create an eating disorder and all this stuff.

I had the exact opposite experience.

I was so healthy as a kid.

I was never sick.

I was rarely ever on antibiotics.

I was a very healthy kid.

And I go to college exactly as your kids, full 180.

I mean, I was doing Taco Bell, like fourth meal, you know, at midnight coming back from the bars and none of this I'm proud of.

But I needed to go through that experience because what ended up happening is I gained a bunch of weight very quickly.

I got cystic acne I'd never had before.

I was inflamed.

I couldn't focus in school.

And because I'd had that baseline of feeling so healthy and good, I knew what it felt like to be healthy.

Exactly.

When you have that baseline.

And I think what we're struggling with in America right now is there's so many people that don't know how bad they feel because they don't know any different.
