Reading Food Labels: Making Informed Choices While Traveling to Foreign Countries!
I recorded this on the first leg of my trip backpacking through Poland while in Lublin. Let me tell you, Warsaw is a vegan paradise! There are so many delicious vegan options there and way more affordable than what you can find in LA. Traveling like this is actually pretty cool because it's like a brain workout. Every new city brings new challenges to solve and things to learn. But let me tell you, eating healthy while traveling to new international cities is a challenge, especially as a high raw healthy vegan. There aren't any raw vegan restaurants.
It's a struggle, but on this episode of the Raw Food Health Empowerment Podcast, we are going over some tips to navigate food labels and making healthy food choices while traveling internationally.

The Brain Condition That's Affecting Bruce Willis: What You Need to Know
Bruce Willis’ family recently announced that he is suffering from frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a form of dementia for which there are currently no treatments. They are encouraging people to spread awareness in hopes that maybe potentially one day there will be a cure.
On this episode of the Raw Food Health Empowerment Podcast, I talk about SPECT single photon emission computed tomography, which can be used to diagnose different types of dementia. We explore the two areas of the brain that Bruce Willis is having issues with and how a non-famous person could be impacted.
By being aware of these issues, we can take steps to optimize brain health and improve our overall quality of life. One way to do this is by diversifying our gut microbiome, which is ground zero for the health of our body and brain.

Why and how you need to diversify your gut microbiome
I’ve created a checklist just for you. Download it here:
https://rawfoodmealplanner.com/how-to-diversify-your-gut-microbiome/
The immune system counts on the microbiome for functionality.
By taking care of the gut, we can recover better from COVID, per the studies, but it goes beyond this. A healthy gut = a healthy brain!
So, how do we keep the gut healthy?
The first thing to do is to get rid of all antibiotic-antimicrobial products (including hand sanitizers and antibacterial soaps). This needs to be done, as soon as possible, even though you may not feel sick. Many products don't give the bacteria time to get back to some baseline, and killing off both the good and the bad bacteria can result in a very bad situation. The key thing here is to go back to basic hygiene. Use hand soap, not 'hand sanitizer', and wash your hands with soap and water.
Eat only organic foods.
Learn more on this episode as we dive deeper in how to diversify the gut so you can be as healthy, energetic, mentally sharp, and happy as possible.

Are You Concerned About Inflation?
I asked my mom this question and she answered, “Yes, but not worried.”
We dive into this on today’s episode of the Raw Food Health Empowerment Podcast.
I don’t watch prices but my family has shared with me that the price of apples has increased by 75% in Orlando. The big bag of organic frozen blueberries at Whole Foods used to cost $8 and are now $10, a 25% increase.
Food prices overall have climbed by 8.8% yearly, while the cost of agricultural chemicals such as fertilizers and pesticides has increased by approximately 50% in the previous year. A lot of those chemicals come from Russia.
Folks are concerned obesity may be on the rise as a result of rising food expenses. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the percentage of the population classified as obese has grown by 11.4%, affecting almost 42% of Americans.
In this episode, we discuss how we’re handling this inflation.

Here’s Why Some Raw Vegans Are Dealing With Tooth Decay
Six years into Jeannette Donofrio’s raw vegan journey, she went to the dentist's office, and the dentist was shocked. The dentist told her that she had the teeth of a 75-year-old. That’s how soft they were. Jeannette realized that it must be her habit of eating dried fruit daily in the quantity in which she was eating them that made her teeth degrade so quickly.
Jeannette drops so many gems of wisdom from her 10+ years of living a fruit-based vegan lifestyle on today’s Raw Food Health Empowerment Podcast episode.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Managing a raw vegan lifestyle in NYC as a busy professional
- Emotional eating and overcoming food addiction
- Exercise and how to find exercise you enjoy
- B12 deficiency
