Motivazione
The topics of nature, health, and nutrition have fascinated me since childhood. For me, an organic, plant-based, and balanced diet is the basis for a healthy life, well-being, and a valuable contribution to achieving global climate goals. Plants and their culinary and medicinal use particularly fascinate me. With my articles, I would like to present science-based information on plant-based nutrition in an easy-to-understand manner and create incentives to integrate healthy and tasty foods into the daily meal plan.
I grow various vegetables, herbs, and fruits in my home garden, prepare them into delicious dishes or simply enjoy their aroma raw. Particularly, I like artichokes, apples, mountain basil, pears, beans, savory, blackberries, edamame, peas, lady’s mantle, rose hips, raspberries, chamomile, carrots, cabbage, leek, lavender, mallow, aubergine/eggplant, parsley, radicchio, marigold, arugula, saffron, yarrow, sage, thyme, tomatoes, rosemary, sweet potatoes, quince, walnuts, sour cherries, and savoy cabbage.
