Authors to talk about <\/p>\n
nutrition during visit to O'Brien Farms <\/p>\n
EAST MANATEE -- O'Brien Family Farms, 16505 State Road 64 E., will host \"Naked Calories\" authors Mira Calton and Jayson Calton from 1 to 3 p.m. Saturday for a lecture and book signing. <\/p>\n
The Caltons' story begins personally: By the time Mira Calton was 30 years old, she had the bone density of an 80-year-old woman. Her doctor's official diagnosis was advanced osteoporosis, and he prescribed a host of medications. But Mira preferred to take her health into her own hands and began a search for alternatives. <\/p>\n
Moving to Florida to be closer to her family, she found Jayson Calton, a nutritional theorist with experience working with people who had chronic health conditions. He not only reversed her condition within two years, they bonded over their common passion and desire to help others uncover the sources of their disease through nutrition. <\/p>\n
In 2005, they married and set off on a six-year, 100-country research journey to study the effects of modernization on the lifestyle and nutrition habits of people around the world. Their findings culminated in this book. <\/p>\n
O'Brien Family Farms is a farm stand and educational center that features hydroponically grown fresh fruits and vegetables that customers can pick themselves or buy freshly picked. <\/p>\n
