After facing multiple overlapping family health disasters in early 2021, Raina Kumra Gardiner set out to find a better way to integrate healthy, healing foods into the meals we eat. She grew up with Ayurveda and learned from her mother and grandmother that the first stop when illness strikes isn’t the drug store - it's the spice drawer. When she had her first child in 2013, she went back to deploying the power of the pantry and making plant-based medicine at home.
Raina had a great multi-decade career spanning tech, media, investing, and government. And throughout that time, functional medicine was something that called her. And, perhaps for the first time since childhood, she decided to listen.
She began formally studying plant medicine and the impact that food has on our ability to fend off chronic disease. The further she researched the more she realized that our entire food and health system was broken.
At her core, Raina is problem-solver and movement-builder, and she set out to fix this at scale. Raina believes that food is medicine and she founded and launched her company Spicewell to bring function to your pantry, and help you close the nutrient gaps in your and your family’s diet.
She’s started a movement and a business to move better eating forward – and to bring you the smartest, healthiest food. Whether you’re curious about Ayurveda, looking to improve your wellness, or want to understand the deeper issues within the food industry, this episode is packed with practical insights and powerful lessons.
