When Culture and Science Collide 

 

This week, Morgan talks with Harvard PhD turned Food Blogger & renound spice queen, Kanchan Koya. Growing up in India, she shook her head at ancient spice remedies her grandmother would give her & decided she would study real science to get to the bottom of health... which only ended up only taking her back to her roots! After discovering that science really could back up the medicinal properties to her favorite spices, she dedicated her life to educating others and making simple, delicious recipes that incorporated these wholesome ingredients as a content creator on social media. Listen in as Morgan & Kanchan talk about infancy pallet development, spice benefits, blood sugar & social media & food fasting.
