Sis, this week on the Staying Ageless Podcast, we are talking about the many benefits of incorporating bitter foods in your diet. Tune in to this episode to discover what foods and herbs have bitter compounds, how these compounds affect appetite and inflammation in the body, and how bitter foods can help those with low stomach acid as well as those who want to curb their sugar cravings.
