How I Regained My Health with Tower Garden

Hello, I'm Karen Schriefer. And over the last several years, I have truly come to appreciate the value of consuming a variety of nutrient-dense plant foods on a daily basis. Why now? Because these foods helped me regain my health after experiencing an unexpected (but not surprising) health crisis that landed me in the hospital for 5 days. 

To speed up my recovery, I began researching diets that heal the body and discovered the Nutritarian Diet created by Dr. Joel Fuhrman. Not only did adopting this eating style help me heal from that medical condition, it also helped me reverse my high blood pressure so that I no longer needed medication. And I lost a whopping 85 pounds in the process which was an added bonus! 

One of the components of the Nutritarian Diet is to eat a SALAD every day, and make it the main dish. This is because green vegetables, especially leafy greens, are the most nutrient dense foods on the planet and should be eaten regularly, both raw and cooked, for optimal health.

That's why I'm so grateful for my Tower Garden Home; it helps fuel my daily salad habit! At lunchtime, I love walking over to my garden, which is located just outside the kitchen, and picking the freshest of lettuces, kale, Swiss chard, and microgreens to put into my bowl.

When it comes to dinner, I visit the garden again to pick some tatsoi (similar to spinach), Bok choy, collard greens, or kale for my cooked vegetable dishes. During the warmer months, when I have my Tower Garden Flex set up outdoors, I also enjoy incorporating fresh Tower Garden tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, peppers, and other produce into my daily meals.

But the best thing about growing my own produce with Tower Garden: not having to worry about the quality of the produce I'm eating because I am in full control of the growing conditions, making it even better than organic. From Tower to Table.
