Xanthe Corren didn’t always read nutrition labels. “I bought what looked healthy and hoped for the best,” she admits. But when she started dealing with fatigue and frequent bloating, she knew something had to change.
After researching chronic inflammation, she began to see patterns in her diet—too much processed food, not enough diversity, and a lack of anti-inflammatory staples like omega-3s, fiber, and antioxidants.
Instead of panicking, Xanthe created a small list of everyday essentials she could build every meal around. Fresh greens, berries, sweet potatoes, flaxseeds, olive oil, and fermented foods like sauerkraut became her shopping anchors. These weren’t luxury items—they were practical, powerful choices.
“Shopping became less about fads and more about function,” she says.
Within weeks, her energy returned, and the bloating eased. The best part? She didn’t feel restricted. “When you shop for your health, you’re investing in how you feel—not just what you eat,” she adds.
Now, with her fridge full of colorful, whole ingredients, Xanthe says her cart has never looked so vibrant—or felt so purposeful.
