About this episode

My guest this week is Dr. Melissa Mondala, a holistic plant-based physician, nutritional & wellness expert, health coach, mental health advocate, and recipe inventor!

She has been featured in popular media, such as Forbes magazine, and helps clients improve their lifestyle to optimize their health, achieve their goals and develop sustainable habits to live a healthy and balanced life.

 Integrative medicine is a research-based branch of medicine that focuses on treating and preventing diseases holistically, with minimal surgery or prescriptions and incompasses principes of lifesytle medicine as well - nutrition, exercise, restorative sleep, emotional wellbeing, and avoiding toxins and risky substance use.

Integrative medicine appreciates the mind-body-spirit connection along with essential supplementation.

Dr. Melissa Mondala practices Integrative psychiatry which is a holistic approach that uses both traditional allopathic and complementary therapies in the treatment of psychiatric disorders.

Personalized treatments are developed to suit each person’s lifestyle and strengthen self-awareness and resources for self-care.

Dr Melissa shares how moving towards a plant-based diet can have significant benefits for our minds and bodies and shows us that whole food plant-based makes for healthy people. And a more healthy planet.
