Summer is here! Put your hands in the air 🙌

When it’s hot like right now, our hunger decrease… and this is because our brain is already occupy by the process of keeping our body temperature normal.

Unfortunately, for a lot of people the balance of macros in their meals takes a hit…. or should I say a heat 😂
