I was tired. It was the end of a long day of activity as leader of the youth department in São Paulo, Brazil. At the time I lived in the Lapa district and worked in Vila Matilde, which is around 22km away. This meant my commute included two trains and a 15-minute walk between stations each way.

True clean eating embraces organic, wholesome foods in an attempt to eliminate one’s exposure to artificial chemicals, colors, and preservatives. It involves consuming antioxidants that will aid our bodies, as well as other foods that will actually supply what the body needs to run smoothly.
