The Art of Being Well with Dr. Will Cole

January 30, 2023

In this episode, I’m joined by registered dietitian, nutritionist, and author, Maya Feller. Taking inspiration from her own cultural roots and her clinical training, her new book Eating From Our Roots, takes us on a culinary trip around the globe. By shedding light on traditional cooking methods, farming, and ingredients from cultures in the Caribbean, African, Mediterranean, and more we can learn how to eat more sustainably and healthfully for vibrant wellness. From looking at how migration patterns have influenced our modern day diets to old vs. new wellness practices, this episode dives deep into all the ways our eating patterns have evolved to what they are today – for better or worse.
