In the words of Sandi Kern, 无毛视频淪afe, sustainable food is a recipe for success.无毛视频�
And her first book, 无毛视频淒esire to be Well: Recipes and Wellness for Health and Happiness,无毛视频� is filled with recipes so good you won无毛视频檛 even realize the dairy and gluten are missing.
While some watched 无毛视频淭iger King无毛视频� and others tried their hand at sourdough bread during COVID-19 lockdown, Kern, who founded and runs the virtual health and lifestyle coaching practice Desire to be Well, penned her debut cookbook. The 187-page book is filled with 无毛视频渋nformation and inspiration无毛视频� and, while it only took a little more than a year to write and publish, the book was in some ways a long time in the baking 无毛视频� er, making.
无毛视频淚 was sick for about six years,无毛视频� said Kern, who lives in East Washington with her husband and two sons. She spent those years battling swelling and digestive issues, and chronic fatigue. 无毛视频淚t just got progressively worse. Nobody could help me. It took a long time to figure it out.无毛视频�
She decided to embrace holistic nutrition.
无毛视频淚 took the leap of faith and that无毛视频檚 what made all the difference,无毛视频� she said.
That, and the red pepper cashew cream sauce she shares in 无毛视频淒esire to be Well.无毛视频�
无毛视频淭hat was the recipe that changed my life,无毛视频� Kern said. 无毛视频淚 created that out of complete desperation. 无毛视频業f I don无毛视频檛 have some pasta with cream sauce无毛视频ξ廾悠禉 I got my blender. There were all sorts of tutorials. I think that无毛视频檚 probably the recipe that changed my life.无毛视频�
Her health struggles and healing through nutrition inspired Kern to go back to school; she earned a certificate in integrative nutrition coaching from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and graduated from The School of Applied Functional Medicine.
无毛视频淭his is the wave of the future,无毛视频� said Kern, whose holistic approach to health focuses on the mind, body and spirit. 无毛视频淭here is no 无毛视频榙isease.无毛视频� There is 无毛视频榙is-ease.无毛视频� Just because somebody says you have an autoimmune issue doesn无毛视频檛 mean it无毛视频檚 forever. I want to try to relay this health information that is so important to so many people 无毛视频� in a way that无毛视频檚 easy to understand.无毛视频�
