Once she changed her diet she stopped experiencing painful pre menstrual pains and joint pains and decided to stick to a complete plant-based diet. She has never looked back.
About Mahorgany Health Foods It was born out of a burning desire to introduce the benefits of eating a plant based diet to our fellow brothers and sisters in Ghana and therefore, support them on their journey to a healthier version of themselves.
Two main reasons fuelled this desire: Firsteh she wanted to fill up a gap in the food industry in Accra - There only a few vegan restaurants in accra.
Secondly, she wanted to raise among Ghanaians, the awareness that plant based cuisine is not about boring salads and bland meals but it is instead about wholesome , tasty and nutrients-packed meals that nourish your body , improve your health, fill you up with energy and vitality and contribute to protect our environment.
Catherine takes us through her journey of being pescetarian. As a member of VegGhana we gain insight into her professional life and how plant based nutrition and alignment of mind, body and soul has improved her overall health.
