About The Food Editor

A Lifelong Passion for Food and Health

For more than 50 years, I’ve been reading labels, asking questions, and sharing what I’ve learned to help others make more informed choices.

Have Your Chips and Eat Them Too

But read the ingredients.

You don’t have to give up everything you enjoy. Chips and salsa can still have a place at your table—the key is knowing what’s in them. Read the ingredient list, compare your options, and choose what feels right for you.

I’m not a physician. I’m a lifelong student of food ingredients who has spent more than 50 years learning, observing, asking questions, and sharing what I’ve found.

At 27, I was reading labels and working with dietitians at Campbell Soup, where I helped design menus for hospitals and other institutions to support patient healing.

I also worked with Naturarde Productions, a health food manufacturer, where I was trained to sell nutritional supplements and healthy skin care products. This experience gave me a deep understanding of the benefits of nutrition for your body, mind and skin.

Along the way, I earned a certificate from the Institute of Nutrition in Paramount, California — formal training that deepened the knowledge I’ve built over decades of reading labels and studying ingredients.

Doctors have always respected my knowledge and my commitment to making healthy decisions. Today, I maintain an active lifestyle into my late 70s, and my goal is to help others make more informed choices too.

The “Loaded Gun” vs. The Trigger

“Genetics loads the gun, but the environment pulls the trigger.”

Because of your birth parents, you may have inherited certain genes. To avoid activating those genes, change your lifestyle and eating habits—and don’t pull the trigger.
