Science
While there are many diets to choose from, the science is in – a WFPB diet is the best way to improve your health and longevity. That’s why The Edible Apothecary is dedicated to creating organic, nutrient-dense WFPB meals. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted considering Dr. Greger’s daily dozen, the evidenced based literature and the work of other leading experts in the field. Each meal is prepared to accommodate our busy lifestyles.
The reason we use organic ingredients is because they contain higher levels of nutrients and phytonutrients. Organic ingredients also have fewer pesticides and herbicides, which are known to cause oxidative stress and can trigger gene mutation – leading to disease.
