What does FOOD AS MEDICINE really mean?
Food as medicine, as a concept, refers to promotion of health through appropriate diet and nutrition. It’s based on the principle that what you eat has a direct impact on your health, and that your food choices play a great role in disease prevention.
〰〰〰
At Happy Bellyfish, when talking about food as medicine, we don’t refer just to application of medicinal foods to address particular health issues - it’s a doctors’ expert field. We believe it’s our daily choices and habits that have the greatest long-term impact on the quality of our lives.
