🍃 The Philosophy of Healthy Eating

This lesson honors the importance of caring for our bodies through good nutrition. Just as Sandy protects her students, we must protect our health through wise food choices.

In Chinese medicine, every meal is an opportunity to nourish and heal. The concept of 营养 (nutrition) goes beyond calories - it's about giving our bodies what they need to be strong, healthy, and full of energy.
