This episode is a must because the world is so much fear and each of us is already affected in one way or another. It is time to practice being in the now & take action on things we can control like building our immune system.  Vidal speaks about COVID-19 symptoms and how each stage has a different symptom picture.  She speaks so clearly about the importance of our body launching a fever when our immune system is taking action.  This episode is full of gems to destress & learn how to take action on every level of wellness. She gives her thoughts on nature's law during this pandemic, which is very interesting. Don't miss this one!

Today's episode features Lloyd & Deb talking about a healthy New Year's resolution to take the fats out of your diet.  They discuss their journey from their fruit diet, to raw food diet which made them both not feel well because they realized how many fats were sneaking into their diet just to try to maintain the raw food diet.  Sometimes we work too hard to follow a diet that has a certain name rather than one that we feel well on.  This episode is about them speaking candidly about why they added cooked food back into their diet to help them feel satisfied AND to be able to eat little to no fats again. Their journey can help since it is a common issue that many are faced with when trying to go raw.

This episode is not only for those on a budget but if you want to cut down your food costs and still eat healthily then you will love this one, however, if you have no food budget you will still love this episode because you will learn how to plan your meals.  Why plan?  Well, it helps stop food waste, saves you time during the week and most importantly helps you eat healthy home-cooked meals every day.  If you don’t plan it is so easy to grab already made processed food which is loaded with fat, sugar, and salt not to mention chemicals or pesticides or both!  I am pretty sure everyone will find this episode useful and if you are new to the vegan lifestyle or you are trying to eat healthier for less money then be sure to listen and check out Toni’s free meal planner on her site.

BIO of Elina Fuhrman

Elina Fuhrman is a best-selling author and wellness warrior, Founder, CEO + Chef of Soupelina, and cancer conqueror. While revered among Hollywood elite and luminaries, Elina’s fresh approach to healthy eating has made her a sought-after talent, inspiring mentor and credible wellness expert.

Elina is also an award-winning journalist who covered international news and wars for CNN, and traveled to Afghanistan to report from the front lines following the September 11th terrorist attacks. But it is her personal war against breast cancer that has inspired many and led to the creation of Soupelina http://www.soupelina.com/, the company that delivers healing organic plant-based soups and soup cleanses.

On a mission to heal herself and treating cancer as a health opportunity, Elina relied on Ayurveda, Naturopathy and Traditional Chinese Medicine, to guide her in learning about the power of herbs and plants, and creating her own blends of therapeutic soups that targeted different health issues. She became a voracious student of all things health + wellness, integrating ancient healing traditions to transform a cancer diagnosis into vibrant living.

Elina’s mission-driven company not only serves her community but also revolutionizes the way America looks at food with its food-as-medicine philosophy, sustainable and innovative cooking, known for elegant style, texture and layers of flavor. With names like LENTIL ME ENTERTAIN YOU, KALE-IFORNIA DREAMIN’ and I YAM WHO I YAM, Soupelina wants people to have fun while eating healthy.

Elina’s invention of the Soup Cleanse and tongue-and-cheek line, Souping Is The New Juicing, have become headlines in publications like The New York Times, Vogue, Gwyneth Paltrow’s GOOP, Harper’s Bazaar, ABC’s Good Morning Americaand many others. Vogue wrote that “Soupelina has been gaining so much attention that even juice companies” have begun to stock “their own versions of soup cleanses.” ABC News dubbed Soupelina soups “soups with a purpose,” and VegNews reported that Soupelina’s “wellness-inspired” soups have “captured the hearts and taste buds of LA’s discerning diners.”

Elina’s debut book, Soupelina’s Soup Cleanse (DaCapo Lifelong, 2016), has resonated with thousands of health seekers and foodies alike. It has been translated into multiple languages published throughout Europe. Elina has become Hollywood’s go-to vegan chef to help her clients findthe perfect balance and restore health. Her celebrity fans include Gwyneth Paltrow, Jessica Alba, Alicia Silverstone, Coco Rocha, LeAnn Rimes among others.

Part visionary and part teacher. Elina translates her clients desires to eat + live healthy into a stylized culinary experience with genuine passion, authentic vision and knowledge of ingredients.

A graduate of University of Wisconsin-Madison, Elina lives in Los Angeles with her two daughters, singer/songwriter Madeline and actress, Isabelle.

When she isn’t cooking, writing, or spending time with her daughters or traveling the world, you can find her on the beach meditating or thinking up a new recipe. Her favorite past times include dinners with family + friends, soaking up the California sunshine, and creating (and eating!) delicious food.

Today's Episode is with Dr. Tumi Johnson MD who is a traditionally trained medical doctor that now used food as medicine with her patients.  She tells her story, which is interesting in itself, but also answers so many of your questions about raw food, fruits or a plant based vegan diet.  No matter where you are on your journey of health this episode with help you learn so much & motivate you to add more raw foods & fruits to your life. 

I asked her many questions... for example: Are cooked vegan diets as healing as raw food?  How much raw food should be in our diets?  Is fruit dangerous for type 2 diabetics?  Is fruit better than fruit juice? When should I juice vs. when should I use smoothies?  I think many of you have these questions & more & will find this episode very informative & helpful.

Dr. Tumi is a genuine & compassionate human being & this comes thru in my interview with her.  She genuinely cares about helping people learn the truth about how they can heal themselves, but also counsels them medically which is what makes her so special.  She is also a professional dancer & if you have not yet seen her videos on youtube it is a must to watch her dance.  Wow.

If you are interested in knowing all the components of a healthy lifestyle she helps her clients with then you should buy her book called Delicious Healing.  (Link below)
