Chef Vahista Ussery, MS, MBA, RDN
Chef V’s nutrition philosophy is all about keeping it simple. She likes how journalist Michael Pollan puts it: “Eat food, not too much, mostly plants.” Focus on consuming a variety of whole and natural foods. Load up on fruits and vegetables (especially vegetables) and make your plate colorful and tasty! Stay away from fads and look around the world for real life examples of longevity.

Choosing plant-forward and minimally-processed foods is the best way that we can ensure that the foods we put in our body maintain our health.
