Hello There, Thanks for listening. Today's podcast is "Essential Nutrients: Fuel your body for greatness". Why am I discussing the Essential Nutrients? I was inspired by a conversation I had with a friend. She was unclear on why certain foods were necessary for our health. And here at the The Talking Apron.. we discuss "All things Kitchen". Food purchased, prepped, prepared... in our kitchens. AND why do we eat food? And why are we concerned about our health? AND do we know enough about food to be sure we are eating the foods that our bodies need. There are nutrients that are essential to our living.. that's what this podcast is about.. What are those foods? With a background as a HS nutrition teacher I promise to keep the information easy to understand and in it's simplist form.. No doctorate necessary for understanding. MAKE NOTE: I am not a medical professional.. I am a nutrition teacher. Be advised to seek professional advice if you have anything going on with your body. This podcast is strictly for information and knowledge. To give you an understanding of how the body needs certain healthy foods. Need help getting started or restarted in cooking from home?

Hello there my kitchen friend, After searching through pins on Pinterest.. I noticed all the references to the word healthy. I got to thinking, do we really know what that means in our everyday life. I'm sure you've been interested in becoming "healthier", what does that mean to you? And I thought.. how can I have health goals when I truly don't know what my goals are pertaining too. The words healthy meal planning, healthy living, healthy heart, healthy diet.. can be very vague. Do we have a road map for what those expressions mean? This episode explores the professional aspects of what a Healthy human is. I'll take you on a little learning journey through the 6 different types of health, with some personal examples along the way. Blessings for a great week.
