Lucia Ortega

Lucia Ortega's journey into holistic health is a testament to the transformative power of nature's pharmacy. Born in the U.S. with roots stretching back to Honduras, Lucia is a dynamic 35-year-old mother and an inspired author whose personal health challenges during pregnancy led her to rediscover her ancestral wisdom. Confronting inflammation and excess weight, she turned away from pharmaceuticals and embraced the teachings of Hippocrates—"Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food"—and the nutritional guidance of Dr. Sebi, a fellow Honduran healer. Under the guidance of her grandfather, a seasoned herbalist, Lucia mastered the art of turning traditional American dishes into alkaline, electric foods that are as nourishing as they are delicious. Her culinary creations are a vibrant celebration of health and flavor, proving that eating well doesn’t mean sacrificing taste. Lucia writes to empower and inspire, sharing her journey and culinary innovations in a way that connects deeply with those seeking a healthier lifestyle. Each recipe and story she shares is designed not just to educate but to spark a revolution in the kitchen, transforming everyday eating into a source of healing and joy.
