Main components

Cabbage: High in antioxidants which fight against free radicals in your body (compounds believed to contribute to cancer, diabetes, and heart disease). 

  • Aids digestion, supports strong bones (vitamin K), strengthens immune system (vitamin C). 
  • Contains sulforaphane, a powerful plant compound that helps protect cells from DNA damage, boosts liver detox enzymes, and may slow the spread and progression of certain cancers including breast, prostate, and lymphoma.

Edamame: 1 cup contains 18.5g of plant protein! (recommended intake is .35g per lb you weigh so 53g for 150lbs, 70g for 200lbs and so on).

Carrots: Known to be low calorie, yet high nutrient capacity value. That makes carrots great for weight loss, and of course, your eyes.

  • Contains Lutein, another type of carotenoid believed to reduce neural damage by free radicals (aka good for your brain). 
  • Vitamin A galore! This makes your immune system stronger.

Hey!

I’m Madeline! One icky piece of chicken a few years ago quickly led me to plant-based eating. But I’ll admit, those irksome comments from a friend or family around the holidays, gets you thinking. You know, maybe we vegans are sickly haha. No no, we’re definitely fine and likely much healthier. But, most people do lack iron, and vegans definitely struggle with B12. And if you feel sluggish all the time, you just may be one of those people. 

Eat well, feel good :)

So, my goal here is to make it easier for people to connect their daily health directly to the food they eat. Eat well, feel good!
