Traditional Ayurvedic medicine and also Chinese medicine both teach that the root cause of all disease lies in digestion. “We are what we eat” is more than a euphemism. The foundation of my work as a doctor is to help people connect what they’re eating with what they’re feeling. I try to support my patients in finding the joy of eating whole foods that nourish their cells. I believe wholeheartedly that a whole foods, plant based diet is the key to long term health, regardless of genetics or the specific disease present. Each person is at their own unique place on their journey so I aim to meet my orients exactly where they’re currently at. Whether it is simply including more fruits and vegetables or cutting out animal products all together, I help my patients find recipes and meal plans that will work for their schedule and budget. I have seen so many lives transformed, including my own, by aligning the values of compassion and non violence with the daily eating ritual.
