Kimberly Hunter-Gafur, Registered Nutritional Consulting Practitioner (RNCP), Registered Orthomolecular Health Practitioner (ROHP), Aromatherapist, Natural Healthcare Advisor, started her health journey in the late '80s when she was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease for which doctors could not determine the cause or treatment, "a black hole in medicine". After three years and seeing more than a dozen doctors, she decided to take her health into her own hands. Kimberly used diet, detoxification, and supplementation to cure herself of her illness. She accomplished in one month what doctors could not do in three years. Excited about what she had learned and wanting to help others, she began her studies to become a RNCP, ROHP, Aromatherapist, Crystal Therapy, and Detoxification Drainage Therapies. She has worked and studied for over 30 years in the health industry and is currently the owner-operator of Alcona Beach Health Shoppe in Alcona, Innisfil, Ontario. This book was inspired by Kimberly's dedication to her plant-based diet since healing herself more than 30 years ago and her love of cooking, which she developed while living in Italy in the early '80s.

Reverend Alistair Hunter-Gafur, Personal Trainer Specialist (PTS), Ordained Metaphysical Minister, Reiki Master, Digestive Care Advisor, Natural Healthcare Advisor, has always been active and enjoyed working out. Alistair consumed a meat-based diet for most of his life and struggled with acid reflux, digestive issues, and chronic neck pain. In 2003, when he met Kimberly, he began to adapt Kimberly's plant-based diet, instantly began to feel better, and healed all his health issues. In addition, he took an interest in Kimberly's healthy lifestyle and passion for natural health and developed a love for cooking and experimenting with new plant-based meals. Alistair is also an owner at Alcona Beach Health Shoppe and is the speaker at all seminars and lectures.

Both Kimberly and Alistair have a passion for helping others whenever possible; in local newspaper and magazine publications, Kimberly has published health columns, recipes and vegan information in The Globe & Mail. Alistair has published columns on fitness, spiritual health and wellness. They also provide free public lectures on nutrition, diet, weight management and supplementation monthly at the shoppe and for organization and wellness events.
