Chef Herbert Pryke

After 25 years in kitchens around the globe, I have chosen a more balanced lifestyle of teaching. When I'm not cooking my other passion is art. I'm a creative guy.

2007 brought a new outlook on life when I was diagnosed with cancer. As of today (February 10, 2009) I have completely recovered form that cancer!! I had my 14 month check-up today.

This awakening brought forth many changes in my diet, exercise and outlook on life. My cooking classes now evolve around health and wellness.

My art has changed as well and to celebrate I created a website to sell an 'artcure' for cancer wellness. What's an artcure? Check out www.artcures.ca

I have a cooking class on tour (in Canada) called 'Cooking with foods that help prevent cancer' until June 2009. Anyone interested in the recipes can contact me at artcures@sympatico.ca

Did you see The Doctors February 10th? Foods that prevent cancer? Yes, chocolate is full of antioxidants that will attack the free radicals that build up in our bodies, and we need al least 5,000 ORAC units everyday to maintain that fight.

The question is how to get the benefits of chocolate without the refined sugar. My research lead me to a special chocolate sweetened with acai berries and blueberries. That's right!! When I found this chocolate I couldn't get enough of it. In fact, I'm now a distributor and invite you to visit me at www.thechocolatechef.info

Cancer to me is about finding happiness, and finding happiness is about giving.

My blog on www.artcure.ca has recipes, articles, free book downloads, free meditation downloads and some pretty good information. If you have something you want to share about wellness, email me at artcures@sympatico.ca
