Local Forage

  • Eating is one of our most primal and sensual acts. And eating what's good for you doesn't mean depriving yourself of gastronomic delight. Local Forage explores why traditional foods—the real, unprocessed, whole-fat foods of our grandparents—delivers the winning combination of maximum health and maximum taste.

Marc has a masters degree in Nutrition and a nutrition consulting practice based in the East Bay with clients from around the U.S. Several years ago, he experienced a life-changing illness caused by mercury toxicity.
