Green Essence seeks more plant-based cure to boost healthy living, marks third anniversary

Chiamaka Oragwu, founder, Green Essence Healthy Lifestyle, has advocated more plant-based cure as a secret to healthy living.

Oragwu made the call at the third anniversary of Green Essence Healthy Lifestyle and official launch of Green Essence Wellness Centre in Lagos.

She said the mission of the outfit was to reduce lifestyle illnesses, prevent lifestyle illnesses, help to manage it better and to tell people to return to their roots.

Oragwu added that people can stay healthy without modern medication, by what they consume, their lifestyle, advocating that people stay more on a plant-based diet and eat little animal protein.

“I decided to venture into this when I realised that a lot of people were sick, a lot of people were suffering from illnesses that could have been prevented if they know what to do and take on time, and they know the illness caused by unhealthy eating.

“And so far, we have someone who had fibromyalgia who is better now by maintaining plant-based diet, we have people who had arthritis and they got healed by taking natural products, we have people who had kidney stones who didn’t have to go for surgery, also sickle cell patients get their crisis reduced, asthmatic patients also get healthy by taking our alkaline water.

“The whole idea is to try to load the body with nutrient and the moment the body becomes alkaline, it gets better and heal itself,” Oragwu said.

She added that besides getting the products, people should exercise, reduce intake of animal protein, cut off unhealthy meals, and keep their mental health in check, stressing that cutting off unhealthy drinks could also help healing to start.
