Food can be both life sustaining and life enhancing: it can be a source of joy.  And this joy, at least in Western society, is bountiful.

Bountiful Life describes  a quest--my quest--to explore edibles that are delicious, sense-stimulating, AND healthy.  My journey begins in the land of macrobiotics, a largely grain and vegetable-based approach to eating. 

Eating a meal is akin to reliving history. People have likely been eating versions of the plants and animals we consume today for millennia. Food is an inescapable part of who we are as individuals, and as a culture. So I have chosen to offer my stories in the context of my life, and the lives of my friends, family members and patients.

Thank you for coming along on the journey...
