James and Dahlia Marin, holistic registered dietitians from Married to Health, talk about the impact of your environment on your health and our food system. James is an environmental nutritionist. Environmental nutrition goes beyond an individual’s personal responsibility for eating healthy food, to include our collective social responsibility for creating a healthy, sustainable food system.
We also talk about the devastating effects of pesticides on our neighborhoods and how to get involved with local non-toxic groups in your area, efforts to get organic food more available across the country, and how to pick the best produce at the grocery store. James and Dahlia are both whole-food plant-based, and weigh in on the Paleo diet and the Whole 30 reset. Lastly, James gives us his favorite smoothie recipe!
