Episode 35 – Ron Mirante
June 2, 2021
It’s no secret that eating a healthy diet is good for us and can help prevent certain diseases. But how does the food we put in our bodies impact our overall well being?
With that question in mind, I have invited Ron Mirante to join me on the podcast today. He’s the founder of Bone-In Foods, a weekly food delivery service that focuses on building awareness about wellness and our relationship with food.
In 2013, Ron launched the marketplace alongside his wife, after facing his own battle with a rare autoimmune disease called Still’s Disease. He shares the fascinating story behind his mission with us in today’s episode.
We covered:
- What Ron noticed about Americans’ relationship with food while traveling
- The reason why groceries should be our number one expense
- How the definition of organic food became a marketing niche
- What gut microbiome health means (and the role it plays in our bodies)
- The pivotal moment in Ron’s life that changed his view on nutrition
- Busting the common myth around “one diet fits all”
