Chefs, you may be asking yourself just what is Delicious Medicine? And, if it's really medicine, how can it be delicious? Well, for over 5000 years, scholars and physicians of all beliefs have been telling us that "food is medicine." I just thought it was time we make it delicious, too. My interest in medicinal nutrition began at the age of eight. I knew instinctively that if food is what grows us, then it's also what heals us. My first experience with "real food" began with my grandfather; not that my mother didn't feed us real food - she did. But, the magic of the garden was the gift my grandfather gave to me and it has lasted a lifetime! Pulling fresh carrots out of the dark, rich soil was a treat I looked forward too - even more than my mom's homemade candies. We would wash off the carrots and eat them, standing in the morning sun. I loved that peaceful feeling, and sweet, crisp taste. But more than anything, I loved the time spent with my Granddad. Fifteen years later, I heard the word Phytonutrient for the first time and the puzzle pieces of my life fell together. I understood from both ancient and modern medicine, that naturally occurring nutrients in plants give fruits, vegetables, grains and legumes their medicinal, disease-preventing, health enhancing properties. Currently, working with those who have late stage cancer, advanced diabetes, cardiovascular and other illnesses, my clients (509 successful cases, to date) are astounded at the ease and speed with which they are able to restore their radiant health. Given the right tools, our bodies can heal from even the most feared diseases. This is your guide to feeling great again, to having the energy you need to accomplish your dreams, help others, and simply get more enjoyment out of life. The more we know about what food can do for our health, the more success we will have making lifestyle changes, and the more likely we are to reach our goals. Welcome to Tina's Ageless Kitchen! Reach out if you have questions. I'm so happy you're here!
