Eat With The Season

Summer isn’t just a great time to get outside—this is the time to eat with the season and to refresh your plate with vibrant, nutrient-packed foods straight from nature’s grocery aisle.


Seasonal produce is not only fresher and tastier, it’s more affordable. Locally grown fruits and vegetables are harvested at peak ripeness, which means they’re packed with more flavor, fiber, and disease-fighting nutrients.


What’s in Season? Summer gives us a rainbow of health benefits: Berries – Loaded with antioxidants that protect your heart and brain Watermelon – Ultra-hydrating and rich in lycopene for skin and cell health


Sweet corn – A good source of fiber and B vitamins (just skip the butter bath)


Tomatoes – Packed with vitamin C and lycopene to support immunity and skin


Cucumbers – Crisp, cooling, and excellent for hydration Zucchini & leafy greens –Support digestion, reduce inflammation, and energize


How to Eat Seasonally: Shop your local farmers’ market or the seasonal produce section at your grocery store. Build your meals around what’s fresh: salads, grilled veggies, fruit bowls.


Add color to every plate—the more vibrant, the more nutrient-dense. Keep it simple: raw, roasted, grilled, or lightly sautéed with olive oil and herbs


Why It Matters Seasonal eating supports: Better digestion, stronger immunity, healthier skin, more energy, a happier wallet and it helps connect you to the rhythms of nature—something our modern lifestyles often miss.


 Finally, reach out with any personal questions or concerns. Our Practice is here to help you make most of the Summer!
