I think everyone who's on this journey the best advice I can give is to think about adding new things in versus taking things away from your normal repertoire, and by doing that, you're actually introducing so much more nutrient dense foods into your system and you start craving them and, by default, you just start eliminating the things that don't make you feel good and aren't good for you.
How do you get kids excited about healthy eating? Heather Lounsbury chats with Ruby Roth, a children's book author, vegan activist, and talented artist, who might just have the answer. Ruby's latest cookbook, 'Help Yourself', is a vibrant collection of 60 recipes designed to make healthy eating fun and accessible for kids.
Packed with colorful illustrations, humor, and quirky animal characters, this book is more than just a recipe collection—it's an invitation for kids to take charge of their own nutrition. Ruby shares how involving children in the cooking process can foster lifelong healthy eating habits. From fun-to-munch snacks like Life Boats to cozy soups like Tomato Tornado, the recipes are not only nutritious but also irresistibly fun. Did you know your brain actually shrinks when you're dehydrated?
Ruby's book is filled with such cool facts that keep kids engaged and informed. Heather and Ruby also dive into the broader benefits of a plant-based diet, discussing how visual aids can help teach kids about food and the environment. They touch on the importance of making educated choices about health and the impact our eating habits have on the planet and animals.
Tips for transitioning to a healthier diet are shared, emphasizing the rewards of involving kids in meal preparation. Ruby's approach is all about adding nutrient-dense foods rather than focusing on what to eliminate. This positive mindset can lead to a natural shift away from unhealthy options. Whether you're a parent looking to inspire your kids or someone interested in plant-based living, this episode offers valuable insights and practical tips.
Tune in to discover how you can empower your family to make healthier choices while having fun in the kitchen.
