By now, you’ve probably heard everyone from doctors to social media influencers talking about “food as medicine.” But what does that really mean? Can eating a celery stick help you ditch some pills? What steps can you take to make sure that what you put in your mouth is actually working with and not against the only body you’ve got? We’re talking with physician and culinary medicine expert Dr. Sabrina Falquier about all of that and more.
Dr. Sabrina Falquier, MD, CCMS is a physician who is board certified in Internal Medicine, Culinary Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine. Dr. Falquier worked as a primary care doctor for a prestigious multi-specialty group in San Diego, California, for over 15 years. In 2020 she founded Sensations Salud, which focuses on awakening the senses around ingredient acquisition and food preparation while empowering people to better health through nutritional knowledge and culinary literacy within their culinary medicine education and consulting. Among other leadership roles, she is on the advisory board of the Culinary Medicine Specialist Board, focusing on permeating culinary medicine into medical schools, health systems, the food service industry and the community.
