Ann Louise Gittleman Interviews Kristin Kirkpatrick
Join us as we welcome bestselling author Kristin Kirkpatrick of “Skinny Liver.” The First Lady was especially excited to speak with Kristin because her own international bestselling “Fat Flush Plan” was the first diet book in the nation to target the liver as a major fat burning organ. Now the two of them jump right into discussing “Skinny Liver” and how the health of nearly every organ is deeply connected to the liver. As Kristin explains, a silent health crisis is impacting one-third of the American population — nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). According to the latest research most people are not aware that they are at risk because its symptoms often don’t manifest until the liver is seriously compromised. If you have fatty liver disease, you are more likely to develop cardiovascular disease (heart attack and stroke), and potentially several devastating conditions such as liver cirrhosis and liver cancer. “Skinny Liver” shares the steps you can take to get your liver health back on track, with everything from exercise to healthy eating and other lifestyle changes–along with delicious liver-friendly recipes.
