Real Food vs. Supplements

Hey friends, Chef E here Let’s talk about one of my favorite topics: real food. Not just because I love to cook it (I do), but because it’s the most powerful tool we have to nourish, protect, and restore our bodies. We hear a lot about supplements, powders, pills, and protocols. And don’t get me wrong—I’m not anti-supplement. They can be helpful in specific situations. But when it comes to actual nourishment, the kind your body knows how to absorb and use? Whole, real food wins every time.

Not just for ourselves, but for the people we love and the example we set in our homes. It’s the difference between feeling inspired… or feeling defeated. It shows up in especially in the conversations we have with ourselves about food, health, and healing.

Your Body Was Designed to Heal—Feed It Like It Matters

Hey friends, Chef E here 👩‍🍳 Let me remind you of something that should be shouted from the mountaintops: Your body was designed to heal. Not in some vague, woo-woo way—but in a real, biological, breathtakingly brilliant way. - Your skin cells regenerate every 28 days - Your red blood cells turn over in about 120 days - Your gut lining restores in 2–3 weeks - And your brain? It can build new neural pathways in just days. In other words, your body is constantly rebuilding. Constantly renewing. Constantly giving you a fresh chance to support healing. And the question becomes: What are you rebuilding it with? If your body is made new from the raw materials you give it every single day… then let’s give it the good stuff—the kind that tastes amazing and fuels real transformation.
