This week, we're pleased to introduce you a little better to Joana Teixeira , founder of The Therapist Lx . For those who don't know, in addition to being a restaurant that follows functional nutrition principles (super in favor!), they also offer personalized support for those who need new routines and recipes for better health and lifestyle – think less fatigue, more energy, less bloating…
