This Virtual Coffee Shop podcast is a follow up to to this podcast with Shannon Clark recorded one year ago after meeting Shannon in April 2019.

In this episode I am joined by Shannon’s daughter Mackenzie who shares a classroom perspective on using the Balanced Cafe app and the http://www.4theluvoffood.com website with her grade 8 students. New features in the app are also highlighted.

It is really nice to see a project and goal come together. Grab a cup of your favourite brew, or perhaps an iced coffee at this time of year and enjoy the podcast with Shannon and Mackenzie.

This episode of the Virtual Coffee Shop podcast features an interview with Shannon Clark and Stephen Hurley. I hope you enjoy this conversation outlining my happenstance meeting with Shannon, her research and plan to impact health and well being in Canada – adults and students!

With 12 years experience as a physiotherapist working with diabetics, Shannon Clark, owner of ‘4 the Luv of Food’, has developed a tool called the Balance Factor to teach North Americans the nutrient value of food and how to properly balance meals and snacks.

The Balance Factor teaches consumers how to stabilize blood sugar resulting in less insulin use, less body fat and a reduced risk of diabetes, heart disease, and obesity.
