To develop a lifestyle that prevents disease and optimizes health
It is very simple. The same foods that are proven to be the best for our hearts and our health, are the same foods that are proven to be the best for our entire planet! Namely, plant-based foods. Check out my top 10 reasons to eat a whole food plant-based diet.
Did you know that around 80% of all chronic diseases and 40% of all cancers could be prevented with diet and lifestyle changes? Eating a whole-food, plant based diet has shown to be an optimal diet for health and longevity.
Did you know that most teenagers eat only one serving of fruit and vegetables per day, or even less! And less than 3% of children get the recommended amount of fiber each day. As parents you have the power to optimize your children's health and set the stage for healthy food habits for the rest of their lives.
What a mother eats during pregnancy doesn’t only affect the baby’s growth and development, it also affects it’s future tastebuds and microbiome. A healthy start in life can begin already in the womb.
