Dr. Ibrahim
Dr. Ibrahim (aka ‘dad’) Colorado State University Emeritus Professor and Ph.D., Environmental Health Science was an accomplished writer and professor for over 35 years, and began challenging government agencies to strengthen food safety procedures after receiving contaminated seafood at his local grocery store. I’m a natural products/food industry veteran, chef, nutritionist and passionate fit foodie. In the early days as the demo/cooking school manager and editor of Alfalfa’s Markets monthly magazine, “Healthy Choices,” I began my culinary career around sustainable food (Food,not Phood) over 20 years ago.
When my dad was diagnosed with cancer, I had just had my youngest son and felt as though the ground had fallen beneath me. My dad has always been my rock But, thanks to early detection and a diet filled with clean fruit, vegetables and lean protein, he continues to inspire us all. That’s what sparked the fire. Life is uncertain and everyday, we make decisions. Eat Cleaner was a natural way for us to help others thatcare about their families take a small step towards improving their health.
