I am very happy to be chatting with Koren; The Plant Based Coach who is an experienced personal trainer, nutrition coach and mother of two. Koren is a breath of fresh air when it comes to her tips on living and maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle, as well as why it is important to do so.
In this episode Koren shares her experience with Meningitis, and how the antibiotic treatment led to a severe reaction known as Steven Johnson syndrome. While this reaction is rare, it can still have devastating effects on the body. This episode isn't to scare anyone away from antibiotics but instead instills the importance of taking care of your health. As a result of being in good health prior to falling ill, Koren was able to make a full recovery, one of which the Doctors say may not have been possible if her health had been compromised due to other health/lifestyle factors.
We also touch base on some other important topics such as:
Societies desire to label different diets and how this can sometimes lead to an unhealthy relationship with food
Self love and embracing your body
Confidence is beautiful
Health at all sizes
Language around children when it comes to food and body image
Tips on leading a healthy lifestyle
And much more....
I really hope you enjoy this episode and learn something new or it encourages you to open your mind up to new ideas and concepts.
