About Us
Hi,
Thank you for visiting my website!
I was always interested in health and nutrition and thought I ate a healthy diet until my 50s, when I had an autoimmune condition that would not go away. I was actually living on antibiotics for almost 2 years, and was about to be treated with a medication that had potential serious side effects, like strokes!

That’s when I saw Dr. Joel Fuhrman on the Dr. Oz show and heard his message about optimal nutrition reversing illness. I immediately read his book Eat to Live, followed the recipes in the back of the book, and within two weeks, all my symptoms disappeared and I’ve have been in remission ever since. Yes, two weeks! I thought, why didn’t I hear about this sooner? Why didn’t my physician suggest that I change my diet instead of prescribing medication? Apparently knowledge of the negative effects of certain foods on health can be traced backed to the early 1900’s! However, medical doctors are not educated in nutrition in medical school, but are taught to treat illnesses with procedures or pills. I was determined to understand why whole food plant-based nutrition helped me, so I watched documentaries and read books by Dr. T Colin Campbell, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. John McDougall, Dr. Michael Greger, and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn. I felt it was important to help spread their message, so I earned a certificate in plant-based nutrition by completing the six-week course through Cornell University.  I enrolled in the Rouxbe cooking course as well, and learned how to prepare delicious plant-based meals without oil. I also attended classes on health coaching and mentoring. Anyone who wants to change their health destiny may want to watch Forks Over Knives, What The Health, and The Game Changers. While I thought it was necessary to eliminate certain foods right away, some people might not be able to or understand why they should; I was determined to reverse health issues. There are different approaches to following a whole food plant-based diet which you may discover when reading my posts.  Hope this information helps you on your journey to better health for yourself, and the health of our planet!
A simple idea - Eat the rainbow! Choose whole, unprocessed foods from nature. Include fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds and mushrooms every day.
