Episode 2:  “Breaking down how to read food labels, what ingredients to

avoid, and how to make better choices without being overwhelmed.”

Guest: Angela Manzitto, PA (Physician Assistant)

Angela Manzitto, PA, has over 20 years of experience in health care. After

many years in family practice, she became passionate about preventive medicine. She

grew frustrated with the traditional Western model that focuses on treating symptoms with

medications rather than addressing the root cause of illness. She believes true health begins

with what we put into our bodies, and that healing requires a multifaceted approach—one

that incorporates diet, exercise, mindset, and the powerful principles of the law of

attraction. Her mission is to empower people to live vibrant, healthy lives, free from disease, and to

experience every day to the fullest. She believes everyone deserves to feel good, thrive, and

enjoy a long life of great quality.
