Meet signed up dietitians Wendy Lopez and Jessica Jones, co-founders of the multimedia platform Food Heaven, a one-stop-shop for inclusive and accessible wellness.
” We didn’t see ourselves represented in nutrition and wellness and wished to develop an inclusive neighborhood that celebrated all individuals,” Lopez and Jones informed WrapWomen.
What started out as a YouTube channel with simply a number of viewers (particularly Lopez and Jones’ moms and dads) has actually morphed into a fantastic YouTube neighborhood with a following of over 40,000 customers. They also provide unique dishes and friendly blog site posts on their site. Throughout the years, Lopez and Jones’ platform– and hairstyles– have actually developed, but their basic viewpoint has stayed the exact same: healthy consuming must be tasty, cost-effective, and (most importantly) simple.
Most just recently, the BFFs launched the “Food Heaven” podcast, which is perfect for the healthy gal on the go!
