Repeat. Proper nutrition is a human right[1]. Social justice takes healthy food and adequate access to secure so we can all nourish our bodies.

Few people are fortunate enough to have been raised in a loving family without health inequities, so the minority are well-armed in ways to nourish their bodies and minds. Most of us are not. Most of us share similar trials and tribulations. We don’t know how-to treat ourselves or somehow, we’ve lost our way. It doesn’t matter what path you’re on right now or how many forks in the road (pun-intended) that were missteps. Together, we can learn how-to fuel the body, mind, soul, and spirit – to prevent the onset of disease and reverse crippling pestilence like addiction, diabetes, and have healthy hearts. This is the playbook for every chronic condition, even despair.
