I’m so glad you’ve stopped by!
I’m Luna Regina, and this is the blog I and my team dedicate to sharing everything you need to know about a healthy lifestyle around the kitchen.
Why Healthy Eating Matters to Us
We were struck by the fact that the most terrifying epidemic we’re dealing with right now is obesity.
Almost 40% of the US population were obese as of 2016, while the figure was roughly 43% in Europe.
The condition is associated with high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, type II diabetes, which can later progress into serious major diseases regarding organ dysfunction: loss of vision, impaired kidney diseases, etc. It is caused by, apart from genetic problems, the overconsumption of foods, usually calories-dense foods.
Since we’re not at the place to modify our genes, and doing exercises was not found to contribute much to weight loss, healthy eating is the most crucial, effective way to prevent obesity.
It’s the diet! It’s what you put into your body that matters.
However, we truly acknowledge how most of us are too busy to plan a decent menu for the week and that processed, fast food is just too convenient to be skipped.
That’s the reason we founded Healthy Kitchen 101, to make wholesome eating and healthy living a joy, instead of a burden.
In our blog, it’s not just healthy recipes and tools to help make a healthy lifestyle that we’re aiming for. It’s also about building a Food Blog, a Healthy Community where people can share everything about food and cooking.
Therefore, we really need all your help and support to improve and spread our work to more people. We’d really love to read all your ideas, advice and questions through comments and emails.
Give us a poke or drop us a line – we will try to reply ASAP!
What We Do
Wholesome Recipes: We aspire to build a diverse collection of recipes, offering everyone more options of foods that are well-balanced (yes, we do have more than just salads!), yet super simple and easy to cook.
Kitchen Equipment Reviews: You will also find here kitchen appliances that will be reviewed in details when we test out new recipes. These make work in the kitchen and the whole house much easier, more time-efficient and more convenient.
Healthy Eating Advocacy: In 2017, we established a scholarship program meant to be given to college students enrolling in either a 2-year or 4-year program. Participants of this 1000$ worth scholarship were required to write a 500-word essay discussing the importance of having balanced diet. The program was shared widely on the following sites:
- The University Network
- Financial Aid Finder
- Oregon State University
- Missouri University of Science and Technology
- Carthage College
Collaboration for a Healthier Community: Besides focusing on building the content of this blog, we also cooperate with other blogs and web pages to share our messages to a broader pool of audience. Below is the list of sites we have successfully contacted and worked with:
- 20 baked chicken recipes that are so easy to throw together – MSN
- 5 things people get wrong about eating healthy – Business Insider
We do hope to have our work acknowledged widely, delivering the spirit of a healthy lifestyle. If this is also what you aim for, how about staying in touch?
