“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” ~ Hippocrates These days, people tend to rely more on medication than what they eat, and that whole idea of using food as medicine has been largely neglected. Food can be used as medicine by focusing on whole, plant-based foods- getting enough fibre and include a variety of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to support your gut, energy, and overall health. Adding healthy fats, drinking more water, and cutting back on processed foods can make a real difference without feeling extreme. The key is to take it step by step, cook more at home where you can, and surround yourself with people who support your healthier habits. #Afrogirlfitness #nutrition #BlackWomenHealing
