Ep 74 Chef AJ – Why elimination diets don’t work and find the why that makes you cry.

November 25, 2020

Chef AJ has been devoted to a plant-exclusive diet for over 43 years. She is the host of the television series Healthy Living with CHEF AJ which airs on Foody TV. A chef, culinary instructor and professional speaker, she is author of the popular book Unprocessed: How to Achieve Vibrant Health and Your Ideal Weight, which chronicles her journey from an obese junk-food vegan faced with a diagnosis of pre-cancerous polyps, to learning how to create foods that nourish and heal the body. Her latest bestselling book The Secrets to Ultimate Weight Loss: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquer Cravings, Overcome Food Addiction and Lose Weight Without Going Hungry has received glowing endorsement by many luminaries in the plant based movement.



Today Che AJ shares with Nicolette her story of being overweight, addicted to food, anorexic and bulimic which all have its connections to a host of gut diseases that she suffered from. Chef AJ then takes us through her journey of becoming one of the world’s healthiest Plant Based chefs that she is today. She helps people lose their weight with whole foods and lifestyle changes knowing that even though “genetics loads the gun, it’s ultimately the diet and lifestyle that pulls the trigger!”



You’ll be happy to know that Chef AJ always had a sweet tooth is a former pastry chef. But now makes desserts by using the fruit, the whole fruit and nothing but the whole fruit – so you can have your ‘cake’ and eat it too. What truly sets Chef AJ apart from the rest is that she knows not only how to lose weight but what it takes to keep the weight off permanently. Learn all her top tips here on this episode of the Eat Real to Heal podcast.
