Melanie personally follows a whole foods Paleo diet, with a nightly glass (or 2!) of wine, and eats in an IF \u201cOne Meal Per Day\u201d pattern. She has found this combination provides astounding benefits: effortless weight maintenance without restriction (important for the entertainment industry!), disease prevention, immune system revitalization, clearer skin, and better eyesight, to name just a few! She is now on a mission to spread the wonder of a whole foods and IF lifestyle, while fostering her career as an actress. Because who needs silly diet restriction and hunger?\xa0
