Over the decades, beginning back when I was a student at UC Berkeley, I have followed research on health and food closely but, despite that knowledge, I eventually found my own health faltering. I gained weight, my blood pressure crept up, my shoulders froze, and my joints started to bother me. When I had finally had enough, I sat down and developed an eating plan that quickly restored my health. I was amazed at how powerful food can be and immediately began teaching others how to eat to quiet inflammation. I wrote a planbook to accompany TQI classes. I continue to teach the TQI Diet and am consistently inspired by the fabulous results my students achieve. I am also proud that science continually validates the premises of the TQI Diet and that many of my students now come referred by their health care practitioners who have seen patients improve dramatically when they start following the TQI Diet.
