Step into the vibrant world of Ital living, where food isn’t just fuel, it’s a spiritual practice, a cultural statement, and an act of resistance! In this episode, we uncover the history of the Ital Diet, born from Rastafarian principles of purity, connection to nature, and rejection of Babylon’s industrial influence.

Discover how Bob Marley, the global icon of reggae and Rastafarian faith, embodied these values through his meals and music. From coconut-infused stews to herb-seasoned porridges, Ital cuisine reflects a deeper way of living that resonates today with sustainable and plant-based movements.

Will it stop Miles eating a processed bratwurst for his dinner? Maybe not. But, with a mix of cultural history, Marley-inspired anecdotes, and a taste of Ital recipes, this episode will nourish your mind, body, and soul.
