I recently had the pleasure of joining Dr. Shayla Toombs-Withers on her Essence of Tea Podcast, where we discussed the incredible benefits of homegrown nutrition. We talked about how growing your own vegetables can lead to fresher, more nutrient-dense food, fewer chemicals in your diet, and a deeper connection to what’s on your plate—all without requiring hours of work in the garden.
Dr. Shayla is passionate about helping people take charge of their health. As a board-certified family physician, she has dedicated her career to guiding her patients toward overcoming chronic diseases through lifestyle changes, plant-based nutrition, and fitness. In 2019, she founded Essence of Health Wellness Clinic & Coaching in Chattanooga, TN, using a concierge model of care to provide both preventative and chronic care with a personal, holistic approach.
In our conversation, we explored simple ways to incorporate homegrown food into daily meals, even for those with limited time, space, or gardening experience. If you’ve ever wondered how growing your own vegetables can transform your health, you won’t want to miss this episode!
