Tia Mowry is 20 pounds lighter all thanks to her anti-inflammatory diet! However, the actress' weight loss didn't stem from her want to be thin but instead her years-long health battle. Tia who was diagnosed with endometriosis – a painful disorder where tissue from the inside of the uterus grows out the uterus – years ago finally took ahold of her diet in 2017, making some major changes to improve her health.
According to Life & Style, Tia followed a diet that relies on whole plant foods, high-quality proteins, sea vegetables and fermented foods, while eliminating ultra-processed foods, refined sugars, and dairy products.
“When I started to eat differently, I started to live differently,” Tia told the mag. “It was as if the food that was making my body stronger and healthier was having a ripple effect and I began to make better choices across the board.”
Wendy Bazilian, a doctor of public health and a dietician who didn’t work with Tia but supports the strategies she uses, agreed that Tia’s lifestyle change was not only a good step for her health but also her well-being.
“I like the whole foods/real foods approach she took and how she tackled the issue of inflammation in an approachable way,” Wendy said.
“Tia found a way to make healthier versions of her favorite comfort foods,” she added. “But she also built in time for celebrations, which make her approach really sustainable.”
