Ruth Elnekave of JOYÀ Discusses The Power of Adaptogens and Embracing the Joy of Food

Today on the podcast we sit down with Ruth Elnekave, a Toronto-based chef, holistic nutritionist, culinary instructor, recovering corporate lawyer and founder of JOYÀ.

Joya reinvents functional foods, by harnessing the potential of the most nutrient-dense, plant-based ingredients on the planet to create a line of superfood and functional snacks & drinks that are as decadent and delicious as they are nourishing and effective. Her projects are fueled by one main goal: to spread the pure joy experienced when sharing and savoring delicious, real food.

We are huge fans of Joya products, which are just as beautiful as they are delicious. All Joya elixirs and teas are what they call, functional, squared. Using a unique, two-step approach, they combine carefully chosen adaptogens with complementary functional ingredients that together support wellness holistically, setting you up for peak performance. We have a wonderful conversation on adaptogens, nutrition, functional foods, and Ruth’s journey.
