The Anti-Inflammatory Farmacy

The Anti-Inflammatory Farmacy is a cookbook born from the heart of Heroes and Horses, a Montana-based nonprofit where veterans embark on 41-day wilderness journeys and discover the healing power of whole foods. Co-founder of Heroes and Horses and author Mackenzie Fink, who overcame her own health challenges, shares 55 nourishing recipes that celebrate food as medicine through four gentle pillars: whole foods, balanced nutrition, simplicity, and intuitive eating. From spirulina smoothies that sustain her five children through busy mornings to Korean beef bowls cooked over campfires in the backcountry, these recipes eliminate processed foods, sugar, dairy, and inflammatory grains, restoring balance within while honoring the body's wisdom. 

Beyond the kitchen, this book invites readers to participate in the healing the world so deeply needs by reconnecting with their food sources—whether through windowsill herb gardens or visits to farmers markets—remembering that food is medicine, and our relationship to it is sacred. Additionally, the book includes meal planning guidance and gentle practices for developing an intuitive relationship with nourishment. Join Mackenzie as she guides you back to the ancient understanding that our bodies are temples deserving of reverence, one mindful meal at a time.
