In this episode, Dr. Maame-Mensima Horne (Naturopathic Doctor and Clinical Hypnotherapist) and Health Empowerment Coach, Joanna Mickel, explore the timeless principle of food as medicine, inspired by the teachings of Hippocrates, who famously said, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.”

Together, they discuss how whole foods support healing, the balance between macronutrients and micronutrients, and how fats, proteins, and carbohydrates are digested and utilized by the body. The conversation highlights how everyday food choices influence immunity, inflammation, and long-term health.

They also bridge perspectives from naturopathic medicine and Chinese medicine, examining how food sensitivities, allergies, and immune responses can evolve over time. Throughout the episode, they emphasize mindfulness in eating, the impact of beliefs and behaviors around food, and how nourishment extends beyond nutrients to include awareness and relationship.

Tune in for a grounded, thoughtful conversation that reframes food as a powerful tool for healing and resilience.
