In a world where pretty much everything is industrialized and available on demand, most of us have become disconnected from the impact of the food choices that we make on a daily basis. Lena Elkousy believes that food is medicine, and that it should make you feel good, with consciousness of the impact on the planet. Her plant-based food is designed to nourish your gut microbiome, energize your mind and body, reduce overall inflammation, and optimize your body’s ability to regenerate and function. Her food is accessible and delicious to all types of eaters, and she believes that it is important for meals to have nutrient-rich profiles, using many organically produced vegetables, grains and legumes, organic fair-trade spices, fresh herbs, and healthful unrefined oils. She is also truly a chef at heart, and believes that every meal should be incredibly delicious, and the general principles of healthy eating don’t have to be dogmatic.
