eat real to heal

A book that will change your life, transform your perspective, and revolutionize how you approach your health. I've been around in the health and fitness world for over twenty years, and let me tell you, this is a game-changer. "Eat Real to Heal" by Dr. Nicolette Richer, DSocSci, is not just a book; it is a beacon of hope, a guide to reclaiming our health, and a testament to the extraordinary healing power that lies within the simple act of eating real, whole foods.

We live in a world where a lot of what we eat is highly processed; we stuff ourselves with food with refined oil, refined salt, refined sugar, cheese, artificial stuff—you name it. And guess what? More and more people are dealing with serious health issues, like diabetes, arthritis, and cancer. We are in a chronic disease epidemic, but Dr. Nicolette Richer emerges as a guiding light, urging us to reconsider everything we thought we knew about the connection between food and our well-being.

I've had my health wake-up call when my mom got diagnosed with colon cancer. It got me digging into the reasons behind it. And you know what I found out? Animal protein wasn't just linked to colon cancer but also a bunch of other diseases. That discovery led me to create a movement called “Badass Vegan” and launch my first book, “Badass Vegan: Fuel Your Body, Ph*ck the System, and Live Your Life.”. I became a plant-based eater when I saw how the conventional American diet was utterly failing our communities. Heart disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and chronic pain are killing Black people faster than any gun.

This big revelation also urged me to team up with the maker of the award-winning “What The Health” documentary team to create our joint venture, “They’re Trying to Kill Us,” where I explored why people of color in America face higher rates of chronic diseases. It's a tough story about food, disease, injustice, poverty, racism, messed-up systems, and how some big companies are making loads of money while people get sick.  

So, when I heard about Dr. Nicolette Richer and her mission to educate and transform lives, it hit home. She's been at it for more than two decades, helping people worldwide take control of their health and kick chronic diseases to the curb. That's what makes her work and this book so important. Her mission, much like mine, goes beyond transforming individuals physically, mentally, and spiritually. It extends to challenging the social injustices embedded in our food systems, recognizing the disproportionate impact of chronic diseases on BIPOC communities, and addressing the systemic issues that contribute to this health crisis.

Now, let's get into "Eat Real to Heal." This book is a game-changer because it shows us how food can be our medicine. Dr. Nicolette Richer isn't just any nutrition expert or a health guru; she's the real deal. She has been a chronic disease-reversal specialist for over two decades. She started the Green Moustache, which is a collection of 100% organic, unprocessed, whole-food, delicious cafes. She's the brains behind the Richer Health Retreat Center and she’s been coaching and empowering clients through her company, Richer Health Consulting, Ltd. And on top of all that, Nicolette founded a non-profit organization, Sea to Sky Thrivers Society, to work with BIPOC communities, physicians, and youth to relearn the power of plant-based, whole-food medicine to reverse chronic lifestyle diseases.

Her experience and passion shine through every page. Nicolette keeps it really simple. She believes in the power of nature's goodies—real, whole foods that can do wonders for our health. And she's not just throwing big words at you. Nope, she breaks it down in a way that everyone can understand. Science, practical advice, research, case studies, and healing stories—it's all in there. And that's why "Eat Real to Heal" is a must-read for anyone who wants to take control of their health.

Dr. Nicolette Richer doesn't just talk the talk; she walks the walk. Through her stories and guidance, she wants us all to believe that we don't have to be stuck with diseases and that chronic diseases do not need to be a life sentence. She gives us a true roadmap to healing that anyone can follow. Her energy and understanding of how our bodies work will make you want to jump on board this health train.

So, as you flip through the pages of "Eat Real to Heal," get ready for a journey. It's not just about reading words; it's about making a change. Dr. Nicolette Richer's wisdom and excitement will light a fire in you. You'll start thinking about what you eat and how it affects your health when most healthcare professionals say that your diet has nothing to do with your disease. You know that is not true. This book will be a kickstarter for a healthier you.
