The shift in consumption from whole foods to highly processed foods have resulted in nutrition related disease and environmental destruction. Diana provides and excellent, easy-to-follow road map for changing our diets and regenerating the health of our families, the environment, and the planet.

Allan Savory
Founder of The Savory Institute / Author of The Grazing Revolution: A Radical Plan to Save the Earth

Diana really understands human nutrition. She is also one of the few who gets the critical link between human health and sustainable food production. I highly recommend her as a practitioner to help you with your diet and as a leader in the sustainable food movement.

Robb Wolf
New York Times Bestselling Author, The Paleo Solution

Overcoming our societal ignorance requires hand-holding and cheerleaders. Diana is a cheerleader for a healthy future; a future with ecological, economic and emotional integrity. We cannot build a healthy future on potato chips, fast food and convenience. She inspires many people to come down out of the stands, reclaim their health, and begin playing the most exciting game – life!
