food secret
Incorporate fermented foods into at least one
meal a day. I love stocking my fridge with
several kinds of kimchi and kraut to add to
my meal depending on the flavor profile.
Ingredients I swear by: garlic and salt.
tHe impact of food
on your life
Food has transformed how I feel on a daily
basis. The food-mood connection is real. The
cleaner I eat, the better I feel. It’s so important
that we nourish ourselves with whole foods.
It’s the easiest way we can commit to taking
care of our bodies.
