Emily Boller
Emily Boller hit rock bottom more than ten years ago. She was one hundred pounds overweight and sitting on a ticking bomb with dangerously high blood pressure and at risk for a major stroke or heart attack. She knew there had to be a better way to restore her health besides dieting, so she created an online art exhibit to help her shed the pounds. One year later, she was free of obesity, hypertension, prediabetes, and heart disease—and most importantly, she got rid of her lifelong addiction to processed food. Emily earned a Bachelor of Arts with Distinction in Fine Arts from Purdue University and certificates in Basic Nutrition and The Science of the Nutritarian Diet from the Nutritarian Education Institute. Today, she’s an author and inspirational speaker who has inspired and taught millions of people how to escape their addiction to processed food, lose weight, and restore their health. Author of "Starved to Obesity". Click here to learn more about Emily Boller. |
