heal with food

yup, after years of trying to create a box for myself via anthropology, academically studying how food has helped cultures heal for millenia, i decided to go the medical route.

not content to just write about it, i’m more excited than i ever have been about the prospect practicing medicine using food as my modality. not, not JUST western nutrition, FOOD from its richest and most exciting sources.
cheer!!

they’re a chinese cultural phenomena, as TCM prescribes food therapy often.
our country could do SO MUCH with this!!

“hey honey, wanna go to CHili’s tonight?”
“oh, no, frank, i’ve got a headache and my arthritis is acting up. let’s go to the food doctor’s resto and i can get some tea and eat some of her special soup!”

i ask, why not?

it’s not JUST about nutrition, it’s about the WHOLE body!
