Today’s chat is with nutritionist, film maker of ‘What’s With Wheat?’, best-selling author, international and TEDx speaker, and founder of Changing Habits and the Functional Nutrition Academy.
Yes you guessed in this episode we were excited to be chatting with Cyndi O Meara.
Cyndi is a passionate, determined and highly educated speaker on health issues and uses her education and experience to help others improve their quality of life so they too can enjoy greater health and longer lives.
She is not your typical nutritionist and driven by a concern for our health system and the lack of educated consumers, Cyndiexplores relevant and sometimes confronting issues and asks people to make a personal informed choice about what they are willing to consume.
She educates people on how to read food labels, why diets don’t work, and how drugs can affect your total well-being and vitality.
Her groundbreaking book Changing Habits Changing Lives (1998) became an instant best seller and its accompaniment ‘Changing Habits, Changing Lives Cookbook’,
In our chat today Cyndi shares how she has grown a successful organic food company and the makings of her farm, a 60-acre organic food bowl which will be used as an education centre for sustainable and regenerative farming practices.
We enjoyed todays chat with the lively, genuine and warm Cyndi O Meara. And we hope you do too.
