Food Story

One thing Dos Santos likes most in life is eating. However, her entire family on her mom's side is overweight or obese. For nine years, she practiced Kung fu with her brothers. When Dos Santos started college, she ate a lot of sugar and stopped doing physical exercises. There she gained about 20kg. After Dos Santos saw a talk about diseases related to high consumption of simple carbohydrates, she became more aware of the quality and quantity of food and, from there, changed her eating habits. However, Dos Santos is not an extremist. Her dream is to be a vegetarian due to climate change and animal ethics, she went for two years. But in her words, she needs to learn to cook better.
