Story
A Journey to Wellness Through Microgreens
​
Welcome to my microgreens haven! I'm thrilled to share with you not just my passion for these tiny greens, but also a personal journey that led me to discover their incredible power. It's a story of transformation, healing, and ultimately, empowerment—rooted deeply in the challenges I faced with my health.
​
My journey began in a rather unsettling way. I found myself grappling with symptoms that seemed to point towards serious neurological issues. My doctor speculated it could be MS or Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS), a diagnosis that filled my days with uncertainty and my heart with fear.
In pursuit of health and in hopes of finding a natural solution to my ailments, I turned towards juicing and embraced a Whole Food Plant-Based Diet (WFPB). This marked the beginning of a profound change. Miraculously, the symptoms that once loomed over my life began to dissipate, reaffirming my belief in the healing powers of nature.
​
As years passed, and I journeyed into my 60s, I encountered another health challenge—Macular Degeneration. This diagnosis was a wake-up call, reminding me of the importance of maintaining a healthful lifestyle. I realized I had gradually strayed from my strict adherence to the WFPB diet. Determined to restore my health and preserve my vision, I sought solutions that would align with my holistic approach to wellness. That's when I found my answer in microgreens.
​
The decision to start growing microgreens was a pivotal moment in my healing journey. These nutrient-dense greens became a staple in my diet, enriching my morning smoothies and meals throughout the day with their vibrant colors, flavors, and most importantly, their healing properties. The convenience of growing them right in my home allowed me to consistently incorporate these superfoods into my diet, bringing me closer to nature and to optimal health.
​
Through growing and consuming microgreens, I've experienced firsthand their profound impact on health and wellbeing. They've not only contributed to healing my eyes but have also played a significant role in maintaining my overall health as I age. This website is a culmination of my experiences, a platform where I can share the knowledge I've gained and connect with fellow Urban Health Enthusiasts who are on their own journeys towards wellness.
​
My goal is to inspire and empower you to take control of your health, one microgreen at a time. Whether you're facing health challenges of your own or simply seeking to enhance your diet with nutrient-packed greens, I hope my story and this website serve as a beacon of hope and a source of valuable information. Together, let's embrace the power of microgreens and unlock the doors to a healthier, happier life.
Thank you for joining me on this green journey. Let's grow together!
