I’m an Integrative Nutritionist living in LA on a mission to change the way we eat in America.  Each week I’ll be talking to doctors, food experts and health professionals to bring you the best info so you can thrive. Somewhere along the way, we lost sight of how powerful our food choices are. But it’s never too late to start.  You’d be so surprised how resilient our bodies are when we start taking care of them.  Trust me, I know it’s overwhelming.  Thats why I’m here.  I’m going to break it down with you, make it more digestible and easier to navigate.  Let’s get back to real food!
