In today's episode, I sit down with my dear friend, Larissa, who's one of the most passionate and talented humans I know.


Not only has she enjoyed a long and successful career in music, touring with the Mrs. Band and opening for big names like Bon Jovi, she’s also transitioned into being a successful Integrative Health Practitioner (IHP) who specializes in wellness, weight loss and longevity using functional medicine.


In this episode we discuss the importance of functional medicine, why testing is so important, the many ways to prevent hidden diseases, what foods to avoid, the 3 benefits of Vitamin C, the best way(s) to take it, and what you can do NOW to boost your own immune system!
