Any guilt about food, shame about the body, or judgment about health are considered stressors by the brain and are immediately transduced into their electrochemical equivalents in the body.

And I want younger people, especially kids from my community, to see that being successful doesn't have to mean leaving a place like this. You don't have to trade in your family or your sense of belonging for that.

One thing I'd like to just keep on doing is I want to educate people about animal behavior and about autism.

That, for some of these kids when that fire alarm goes off, that really hurts the ears, it's a really real thing.
Approximately 82% of the American people believe labeling should take place with regard to genetically engineered ingredients.
