“I had a friend come up to me six months after the kind of like this juicing and high raw and whole food plant-based journey. And she's like, ‘Hey girl, did you notice that your hair is growing back?’ And I was like, ‘Oh, really?’ And I took a picture. I was like, oh my gosh, my hair is really starting to grow, like I could see some inches, and then I could tell something's happening. I noticed that my acne flare-ups were not as bad, and things just started to kind of wean themselves from the storm inside of me, and then all of a sudden, I'm just like better. I'm not gonna say that I'm like 100 percent healthy and perfect. No, I'm a human being and I live in an imperfect world, but for the most part, the things that I said, I no longer suffer. And I'll take that any day.” - Melissa Webster
