I’m thrilled that my forthcoming cookbook Eating from Our Roots is an Amazon Editors’ Pick in the Best Cookbooks, Food and Wine category for January! With this cookbook, I wanted to represent a wide variety of countries and flavors, especially ones that haven’t been historically included in food and nutrition conversation. The result is 80+ dishes from cultures around the world including West Africa, Lebanon, Thailand, the American South and Brazil. I hope you enjoy this love letter to the globe.

We hear a lot about active listening but much less about internal listening. I think of internal listening as the practice of applying the tenets of active listening to our own internal voice. When we apply it to personal wellness, it’s hearing your own thoughts about how your body feels and then listening and honoring what it needs. At Maya Feller Nutrition, I train myself and our dietitians to ask questions that help you probe into what/how you are feeling and how your body responds to internal and external stimuli. Thank you @healthinstitute for inviting me to this important conversation on your Ancient Health podcast about understanding metabolic disease & its link to nutrition. I offered some important points including: -Treating the person first -Finding joy -Rest vs sleep -The nervous system’s connection to digestion -Establishing a culture of wellness in your home. #Tuesdaythoughts #topictuesday #transformationtuesday #meatbolismbooster #diabetesawareness #mealprep #blackwomeninfood #womanshistorymonth #nationalnutritionmonth #foodsharing #foodshaming #blackchef #nutritiontalk #eatthisnotthat #superfoods #healthmindset #globalcuisine #eatingtools #mayafeller #newcookbook #practicalnutrition #personalizednutrition #eatingfromourroots #wellnessrevolution #healthylifestyletips #supportisaverb #cookingfromhome #2023healthgoals #culturalfoods #foodculture

Thank you, @christineshoots and First for Women @FirstMag , for writing and featuring Eating From Our Roots and my feedback in this wonderful article titled: “Comfort Foods Can Actually Be Healthy — Tasty Ingredient Swaps Are the Secret, According to Nutritionist." I'll post one of my fave questions from the article here and go to the Press Section of my website to read the rest! ”What are your tips for finding nutritious ingredient swaps that don’t compromise on flavor? I generally tell people that swaps can be used when there’s a health-related reason for that substitute. Let’s say someone needs to think about managing their blood pressure and wants to reduce their salt consumption. Herbs and spices alongside acidic flavors like lemon juice or apple cider vinegar lower sodium intake while enhancing the dish’s flavor. In the book, I use some lesser-known ingredients and spices that impart incredible flavor including vadouvan curry seasoning and dried Aleppo pepper." Remember to shop the center aisle and your local grocer to discover new spices! #mondaymotivation #mondaymood #firstmag #foodplanning #bloodpressure #foodfluencer #cholesterol #plantbased #blackwomeninfood #nationalnutritionmonth #womenhistorymonth2023 #nutrition #blackchefs #eatthisnotthat #superfoods #healthmindset

Sending encouragement and ❤️ to practitioners who are working hard to close the gap in racial and gender healthcare disparities. Head over to the blog section of my website to read about Juliette Blount @healthequitynp . Juliette is one of my incredible colleagues here in New York City. We’ve facilitated race and nutrition workshops together where we examine the disproportionate disease burden that communities of color experience and provide actionable interactive experiences for providers. As you walk into the weekend, please name and tag someone who contributed to your education in centering inclusion and staying mindful about equity. Thanks, Juliette! 🙏🏾✊🏾 #foodfluencer #foodshaming #equity #inclusion #dramafree #culturallyrelevant #blackowned #plantbased #blackwomaninfood #newblog #founderfriday #livewellbewell #healthyliving #preventativehealth #2023goals #quoteoftheday #newbook #heritagefood #mayafeller #newcookbook #nutrition #practicalnutrition #personalizednutrition #eatingfromourroots #wellnessrevolution #healthylifestyletips #supportisaverb #cookingfromhome

Why is it recommended to keep oils in a cool, dark, and dry place? Because exposure to sunlight and heat can cause the oil to turn rancid. On another note, do you season or infuse your favorite oils Share your go- tos below! 🎥@willvaultzphotography #thursdaythoughts #throwbackthursday #foodflight #avocadolovers #dressing #plantbased #blackwomeninfood #wellnessadvocate #whatsonyourplate #veganrecipes #vegetarianrecipes #Nationalnutritionmonth #culturallyrelevant #heritagefoods #newcookbook #booksofinstagram #blackauthor #culturallyrelevant #culturalfood #bipoc #blackfoodie #personalwellness #dailyritual #nutritiontalk #healthmindset #selfcare #eatingfromyourroots #aroundtheworldwithmaya #mayafeller

I had a blast on @cheddar talking with @bakermachado and @henadoba about the #fuelforfuture theme of this year’s National Nutrition Month! I dropped some tips including adding plant-based foods that you KNOW, LIKE, & are CULTURALLY-RELEVANT. Simplify it for yourself and remember that plant-based food options come in many forms: Canned, jarred, boxed, frozen, and dry AND they all work! In the words of @iamtabithabrown , whichever you use is “your business”! Check out the #CheddarNews segment in the Press Section of my website and hear my intent for writing Eating From Our Roots. If you haven’t picked up a copy, you can get yours everywhere that books are available. #womenhistorymonth #nationalnutritionmonth #cheddarnews #WCW #heritage #culturallyrelevant #blackchef #nutritionevent #wellnessrevolution #plantbased #practicalnutrition #nutritips #eatingtools #mayafeller #blackwomanentrepreneur #newcookbook #supportisaverb #cookingfromhome #eatingfromourroots

Filet Mignon with a martini or Burger with a soda? Sunday brunch with unlimited mimosas or Orange Juice? Check out the latest blog article on my website where we continue to explore the definition of "healthy", the moral hierarchy assigned to food, and the implicit bias that we all experience. The dominant food narrative that wraps all around us is powerful! Would love to read your thoughts and experiences in the comments below.

What are lipoproteins? They are a combination of proteins and lipids that are carried through your bloodstream. You may have heard your doctor talk about your LDL and HDL- these are two of the main groups of lipoproteins. Testing your lipoproteins may be a more accurate marker of heart disease risk in comparison to a routine total cholesterol check. Source: G.
