ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Eli Glaser peaked at 300 pounds. As a rabbi and community role model, he knew he had to "practice what he preached" when it came to self-control and a more elevated approach to eating. So he did, working his way through OA, and eventually founding Soveya, a leading provider of healthy eating information in the Jewish community. Check out their work at www.Soveya.com.
