Description
Thinking about making a lasting lifestyle change - but not sure where to begin? Welcome to the Podcast, Eat Better Food Today, where we believe that health and longevity begins with the food we eat. I'm Ken Counihan, and last year I had a serious health scare, which led me to explore, research, and break down what it is we are actually eating, and how to make a change, affordably - for good! I'm not a doctor but I have been reading and practicing healthier living with my wife and the help of the Cleveland Clinic for over a decade. This podcast will be an engaging and empowering vehicle to Inspire, Educate and Enable folks to Live a Healthier Life. We'll sit down with chefs, farmers, industry insiders, medical professionals, businesses, and patients, who will share their stories and add their insight into the most fundamental of health goals - to Eat Better Food Today! A percent of the profits from this Podcast will be put towards erasing child hunger, initially focused on the poorest suburb in America, East Cleveland in Ohio. So join me on this journey, where we'll explore every aspect of living better, living longer, through food, exercise, sleep, community, and purpose. Let's learn together how to begin to Eat Better Food Today! Follow us now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, our Eat Better Food Today website or wherever you enjoy your shows. Gratefully yours, Ken.
This Podcast is a production of Sante Strategies, LLC. Sante translated is-Health Means Everything. This is the company I have started to begin this health and longevity journey, focused on food.
