The ground-up solutions for navigating a toxic world.
Angela Jenkins, Registered Dietitian and Personal Detoxification Strategist.
I spent decades working inside the conventional healthcare system as a Registered Dietitian, helping people follow the rules—eat better, move more, take the right medications. And yet, I kept seeing the same thing:
People weren’t getting better. They were tired. Inflamed. Overwhelmed. Doing everything “right”… and still struggling.
That disconnect led me to ask a different question:
What if the problem isn’t just what’s happening inside the body—but what’s happening around it?
That question changed everything.
Why Local Food Became My Focus
Health doesn’t start in a clinic.
It starts in the soil.
The more I dug into chronic illness, the clearer the pattern became:
Depleted soils → nutrient-poor food
Industrial systems → chemical exposure
Long supply chains → loss of freshness, connection, and trust
We’ve outsourced the very thing that sustains us—our food. And in doing so, we’ve disconnected from the foundation of true health.
Local food systems restore that connection.
They bring us back to:
Nutrient-dense, real food
Transparency in how food is grown
Relationships with the people who produce it
Communities that support resilience, not dependency
This isn’t just about food.
It’s about reclaiming control over your health.
Destination Real Food brings health back to what is fundamental—not complicated, just essential.
It reinforces a simple truth: there are core areas of life you cannot bypass if you want to feel well—nutrient-dense food, clean water, and meaningful relationships. These are the non-negotiables that support everything else in your health journey.
Destination Real Food: Navigating Our Food System and Restoring the Soil to Improve Health
By Angela Jenkins RD, LD
We Americans are living longer than ever before, on more medications but sicker than ever before. What's going on? Come journey through the explanation of our broken food and medical system in Destination Real Food. Registered Dietitian, Angela Jenkins, weaves the reader through the caveats of bottom line dollar-driven food policy making on a community to national level, the concerns with the current industrialized agricultural model and culminating with what can be accomplished on a personal level, in your own home or back yard.
There is no food transparency with the current food system and it is substantially and negatively influencing our health and the average consumer is unaware. By empowering the reader to become more mindful of decisions around food choices and through making small, incremental changes over time, Destination Real Food shows that supporting regenerative, local food systems effects not only the person making those choices but has a ripple effect in the communities where these choices are made. The American consumer is a part of the largest economic engine on this planet and therefor this journey is one that every American has the opportunity to embark on with the knowledge that where we spend our food dollars, so goes support for that system.
Every one of us votes with our fork each and every day but do we think of it in this regard? Destination Real Food shows the reader how supporting regenerative, organic agriculture, that which restores the biome of the soil, provides a healthier food option not only for the person consuming it but for our most valuable resource, the earth. This book exemplifies how building a relationship with real food, not that which comes from the larger industrialized model, helps facilitate making the right choice, the easy choice. Come journey along and see what simply daily decisions can be made to ensure not only your personal health and then, how together we impact our local food economies, ecosystem and communities.
