We have always eaten.

​

And traditionally, our ancient Indigenous ancestors + cultures spent centuries upon centuries learning, knowing, and developing the best food practices - often including when and what to harvest or hunt, fish, preserve, how to prepare each food for a safe and thriving gut health, and when to eat.

​

While AIDA does not offer professional medical advice for best food practices to combat diabetes in our communities, we do offer an ever growing, burgeoning list of Indigenous food resources - though we do know that Foods taken into our Indigenous bodies, how they are Processed and brought to us, our Genetic makeup, and our current Lifestyles are linked to diabetes and other ailments.
