We're hopping around Knoxville to show you where we get groceries that restore good health and energy.
Our first stop: Whole Foods. (bonus tip for busy people- they deliver and you can order online!)
Wild versus farmed is the first question at the fish counter. Ask, and read the label. There are better nutrients in wild caught fish and seafood.
Whole Foods is increasingly carrying regenerative-farm products, grass-fed, and A2 kefir. Dr. Pardue recommends salmon two times per week; sardines work too!
Check that any olive oil or dressing you choose is not blended with seed oils. We recommend olive oils and avocado oils because they're a beneficial source of Omega 3. Seed oils contain Omega 6. Most people need to improve their Omega 6:Omega 3 ratios so less seed oils, more Omega 3s for restorative health.
