#79: Fiber is Life with the Plant Chics


“There’s not a protein deficiency; there’s a fiber deficiency.” - Jacque Tarlton, Plant Chics


Have you ever been so sure about something that even though it was hurting you you kept doing it? 

Or have you ever been stuck in a pattern that was at once fun and fulfilling but became exhausting and damaging over time? 

In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I converse with Marzia Prince and Jacque Tarlton, also known as The PlantChics. They each have amazing stories to share and lots of passion to spread. 

We discuss:

  • How they each discovered plant-based nutrition 

  • A decision that Jacque made that changed her life 

  • The most surprising things that they have discovered while doing this work

  • Why they love fiber 

  • How to increase your fiber intake

  • What they wish more women knew 

I think you’ll really enjoy hearing from these plant-powered women. I know I did! 

They had me at fiber.
