Mira Dessy went from being diagnosed with IBS, living on the sofa and not being able to walk up a flight of stairs without lying down at the top stair--to today where she no longer feels achy, doesn’t have any bloating or GI distress, and has no more rashes or sinus infections simply by changing her diet.
Mira is a Certified Nutrition Educator and real food advocate who emphasizes a healthy lifestyle and eating whole foods. She speaks frequently to laypeople and nutrition professionals on how to navigate the grocery store’s mammoth packaged food stock to decipher confusing food labels, and choose healthy convenience foods. Her motto is “eat well to be well”.
In today’s episode, Mira and I talk about:
- The top 3 things she removed from her diet that helped improve her symptoms
- How to read a food label to know what to eat and what to avoid
- How certain ingredients are hidden by giving them different names
- “Funny Math” that occurs on the food label and what to watch out for
- The importance of voting with your wallet, and more!
Resources Mentioned in the Show:
- Mira’s website, ThePantryPrinciple.net
- Her book, The Pantry Principle: How to Read the Label and Understand What’s Really in Your Food
- Printable Food Fail Safe Shopping List
- Dirty Dozen (Foods to Buy Organic)
