In this podcast series you will find information on wellness cleanses, yoga, healthy recipes, meditation, retreats I lead, and how your wellness and zero-waste living go hand in hand.

We talk food . . . a lot! I have a background in food science that goes back 25 years now. Over the course of that time, I have studied wellness from pretty much every aspect from Ayurveda to Chinese medicine, from Reiki to Reflexology, from Yoga to Tai Chi, from sound healing to my fun days at Stanford School of Medicine.

I look forward to learning about you, mentoring you, supporting you, and being your BIGGEST cheerleader right now on your wellness journey!

Longevity Nutrition to Your Door with Jennifer Maynard

In this episode, I invite Jennifer Maynard to talk about “longevity nutrition” — the best long-term nutritional habits you can have. Jennifer is the CEO and co-founder of Nutrition for Longevity Inc. — a company focused on giving people the tools to maintain healthy diets from “longevity regions” (places with the longest, healthiest lifespans on Earth). We speak about her farm in New Jersey, food as medicine, soil health in farming, and the worst foods people can eat during self-isolation. Jennifer is brilliant, and I hope you enjoy the interview! 1:40 - Beginning of Jennifer Maynard interview. 4:00 - Jennifer talks about her history and what brought her to healthy eating. 7:31 - We discuss Jennifer’s farm in New Jersey and her farming practices. 9:15 - Jennifer talks about the best foods people can eat, why they’re so good, and what characteristics those foods have. 12:15 - We discuss the importance of soil health in sustainable farming and food taste. 16:45 - Jennifer talks about the importance of having an entirely or mostly plant-based diet. 19:31 - Jennifer describes her own diet and why she’s chosen it. 27:30 - Jennifer details Nutrition for Longevity’s goals and business. 34:20 - We discuss fasting and it’s historical and cultural significance. 37:00 - If Jennifer could walk into a supermarket and erase three foods, what foods would she erase? 45:40 - We discuss the importance of having a healthy diet and why it’s so essential to healthy living.
