Connecting the Dots Between Soil Health and Our Health, One Veggie Box at a Time

Connecting the Dots Between Soil Health and Our Health, One Veggie Box at a Time

"In a veggie prescription program, just simply increasing the number of servings of vegetables someone's getting a day can have a profound impact not only on their physical health, but also on their mental well being. Studies have shown if you increase simply from one and a half servings of fruits and vegetables a day, to eight or more, there's a 30% risk reduction for heart attack and stroke." 

- Dr. Amy Sapola

"Take your broccoli and call me in the morning." Imagine a world where prescriptions sound like this. Join Elizabeth in a thought-provoking conversation with Dr. Amy Sapola, the visionary Director of Farmacy at the Farmer Jones Farm at Chef’s Garden. Driven by her mission to blend regenerative agriculture with human well-being, Dr. Amy takes us on a journey to uncover the interconnected magic of farm and pharma.

In this week's episode, Amy talks about the enchanting synergy between soil and soul. She shares her wisdom on how we can develop a more profound relationship with food and the chefs that grow them, paving the way for a healthier future. As a certified wellness coach and Institute for Functional Medicine practitioner, Amy shares her advice on how to eat better, the art of eating seasonally to optimize nutrients, and the challenges we currently face in farming that we will have to overcome in the near future.
