EP 212 - The Fall Wellness Reset: Pumpkin, Kabocha & Cozy Foods for Better Skin + Energy

Wabi Sabi - The Perfectly Imperfect Podcast with Candice Kumai

About
Fall is the perfect time to make your food feel warmer, more comforting and more nourishing. In this episode, I'll break down the real benefits of pumpkin, dark cocoa, leafy greens, kabocha squash and warming spices, plus how to use them in easy seasonal recipes like pumpkin spice smoothies, dark chocolate pumpkin smoothies, pumpkin pie pancakes and roasted kabocha.

You’ll learn how these foods can support healthy skin, digestion, satiety, steady energy and overall wellness, without turning fall into another season of restriction. This is about making cozy food work harder for you with more beauty benefits + fiber, carotenoids, polyphenols, vitamins and minerals, while still keeping everything delicious.
