Disappointing to see @TheHillTimes print this noise. ht @HealthLawAdamH cc @DrJenGunter@picardonhealth@UbakaOgbogu
@ambernoelle She has just the right amount of subcutaneous fat on her face to prevent sag. And she has always been pale and clearly religious with sunscreen! Winner combo
@rebeccamakkai Just finished and it’s fantastic! Will recommend to everyone I know. So much of it resonated. Defies obvious categories. Can’t wait for your next bk.
