San Diego Magazine recently published their guide to Eating Healthy.
We take a look at some tips and topics that came up in the magazine with Dr. Emily Poccia of Wildcraft Medicine in La Jolla, California.
Healthy Eating
Healthy eating can be a real challenge.

The truth is, eating a healthy diet means different things for different people. We sat down with Dr. Emily Poccia, ND to discuss some of the latest trends with diet and health.
