Mike Tyson: For a couple of years, 5 years
Joe: When did it stop?

Joe : to take care of the body?
Mike: Exactly!
Mike: I realized that things that are good for other people like kale, vegetables and all this stuff, blueberry, etc. for me it’s really poisonous
These things are not good for my blood type, health condition..
Joe: Kale?
