103 Healing with a therapeutic diet | Marian Mitchell

You can put as much or as little work into meal preparation as you’re willing to pay for
— Marian Mitchell -

A therapeutic diet is not a fad diet where someone writes a book and then makes a lot of money promoting it as THE solution.

My guest Marian Mitchell specialises in diets specifically designed to heal the body for those with a diagnosed illness.

We discuss many practical aspects of following a therapeutic diet and Marian shares that if you have a meal plan and a purpose for every food you’re not going to waste food so you’ll be saving a lot of money.

Meal plans are also a really helpful tool so you know what you can eat that will create the right conditions for your body to heal.

086 Sources of toxins in food and water | Bev Roberts

We live in a first world country and we have access to tap water which comes from our water board. So our water board are governed by rules and regulations. They need to test the water and we start to make an assumption that the water we are drinking is fit for us. However the Environmental Working Group found in their testing that there were more than 140 contaminants from tap water!
— Bev Roberts -

Our environment, what we eat and drink has a direct bearing on our health and well-being. Foods in a bag, box, can or jar that we use for convenience is often laden with toxic chemicals and additives which our body is not designed to process.

In addition we are facing the long term neurotoxic damage and other impacts of deadly levels of pesticides in conventional produce including tea and other dry goods. Be alert not alarmed is the message in this episode as awareness is the first line of defensive action.
