Listen "Nutrition for Longevity with Jennifer Maynard"
Episode Synopsis
In this week’s episode of Be HEALTHistic, Drs. Steve and Drew Sinatra welcome Jennifer Maynard, CEO and co-founder of Nutrition for Longevity, a farm-to-table meal delivery service that supports the practice of “food as medicine.” Jennifer believes that a long, healthy life begins with what’s on your plate, so we talk about how she’s working to make a real change in the nutrition and health landscape, how you can use color to pick the best ingredients, the concept of regenerative farming, and how to adopt better food habits for your family. First, the doctors learn why Jennifer left her 20-year career in the biotech and pharmaceutical industries to find Greater Greens, a regenerative organic farm, and Nutrition for Longevity, a meal kit company that offers nutritionally-tailored meals direct from her fields, based on the principles in The Longevity Diet by Dr. Valter Longo. They discuss how the battle with chronic illness is being lost, and how we need to leverage nutrition to help treat the root causes of health challenges. Next, Jennifer and the doctors focus on “the elixir of life,” olive oil, and the benefits of eating a rainbow of colors. Jennifer also explains the concept of regenerative farming, which addresses the nutritional deficiencies in today’s commercially-grown produce, and how typical farming practices in the U.S. are impacting our food system and our health. Finally, Jennifer reveals her greatest tip for optimizing any diet plan. Don’t miss this opportunity to Be HEALTHistic, where the Doctors Sinatra and Jennifer Maynard reinforce the need to move away from sick care toward a more holistic approach of medicine, using diet.
