85: Cara Cifelli on how a Plant-Based Diet Aided her ED Recovery (Veggie Doctor Radio)

In this episode, I have a candid conversation with Cara Cifelli of Cara’s Kitchen where we discuss her history with eating disorders, body image and the work that she does now to help other women develop a healthy relationship with food and their bodies. About featured guest: Cara Carin Cifelli is a Certified Health Coach, Holistic Nutritionist, chef, author, podcast host, and avocado toast lover. Cara passionately provides the tools to help women leave behind dieting, disordered eating, and body shame so they can show up more fully in all areas of their life. She inspires others to leave behind society’s expectations as she guides them into their most confident and vibrant versions of themselves. This self-taught chef learned how to love food again as she was recovering from an eating disorder that she struggled with for 10 years, which she touches on in her new book, Vegan Buddha Bowls.  Cara took her daily pain and struggle and turned it into her life’s work. She quickly learned how easy and exciting healthy eating could be and she wanted to share this with others. She took her delicious recipes to social media where she has thousands of people waiting for her to share her next plant-based creation. As the demand for more recipes grew, Cara knew it was time to write a cookbook. Enter, Vegan Buddha Bowls.  Vegan Buddha Bowls includes delicious plant-based recipes that Cara has personally made and created with easy to find ingredients, with a few unique ones to hopefully bring something new to the reader’s pantry. You will find buddha bowls, nourishing salad bowls, veggie-rich pasta bowls, energizing breakfast bowls, simple delicious sides, plant-powered soups, and so much more!   CARA CARIN CIFELLI https://caraskitchen.net https://instagram.com/caraskitchen   Disclaimer: The information on this blog, website and podcast is for informational purposes only.
