"How we live and what we eat is more impactful in some ways than the genes we get passed down to us" Caitlyn Howarth shares her story that unfortunately begins with multiple family members dying of cancer, including her brother at the young age of 38. Naturally, Caitlyn wanted answers. She took a deep dive into her own research into what could have caused this and how can she prevent it from happening to her. She soon discovered plant-based eating. She was a typical American child and like so many of us grew up on a limited diet of mac & cheese and chicken nuggets.  She is a self-proclaimed lifelong picky eater, never having eaten a squash or bell pepper up until recently.  She now loves to experiment and has tried more new foods in the last two years than all 26 before that. Please enjoy her story.  Resources from this Episode: Favorite Recipe: Sweet Potato and Black Bean Enchiladas Thug Kitchen Hello Fresh If you want to connect with Caitlyn, visit the following:Instagram: @thecaitlynhowarthWebsite: https://www.caitlynhowarthfitness.comPodcast: Plant Your HealthIf you want to connect with Ashley, visit the following:Instagram: @plantcenterednutritionWebsite: plantcenterednutrition.usFacebook: Plant Centered NutritionIf you want to connect with Katie, visit the following: Instagram: @plantcenteredkatieWebsite: plantcenterednutrition.usFacebook: Plant Centered Nutrition
