In Conversation with Michelle Tam
It started as a playful dare—in 2009 Dallas and Melissa Hartwig created a 30-day challenge to push the reset button on their health. That personal effort sparked a national health and wellness phenomenon now known as The Whole30. The Whole30: The 30-Day Guide to Total Health and Food Freedom by New York Times best-selling authors Melissa Hartwig and Dallas Hartwig is a complete guide to the program with more than 100 delicious recipes, grocery shopping suggestions, cooking techniques, and an extensive FAQ. This book offers everything needed to jump start a full-on lifestyle makeover, with the Hartwigs’ own brand of tough love cheering the reader on.
