Cooking from scratch has been a life-style for me since my mid twenties. I had a number of minor health problems that I discovered were diet related. I worked in health food and vitamin stores which helped educate me how to eat for health. I also discovered that cooking a meal at home with fresh ingredients and creating my own recipes that fit my dietary limitations was very nurturing for my soul. It is a form of self love and it is very satisfying to cook something that taste great and makes you feel good. In today's world, organic and sustainable foods are not only more available, but essential for good health and well-being.
Here on the Monterey Peninsula we are blessed with plentiful local organic foods, but even if location or finances doesn't offer you the opportunity for such, buying fresh produce of any kind is going to be a better choice than buying processed, canned, frozen or pre-prepared foods, or even worse, eating fast food. We literally are "WHAT WE EAT." Whether you live alone, have a family to feed, are young or old, you will benefit from cooking your own meals. Most disease can be effectively controlled or totally eliminated by proper diet. From diabetes to gout, gallstones, sulfite intolerance, a vast variety of food allergies, and more are all diet related. Tune in and learn how to take control of your health, and enjoy fabulous tasting food!
