Who Eats Quinoa for Breakfast? With Izeah Bowman

Izeah Bowman, grandson of Dr. Sebi, sparks conversation about food and continuing his grandfather’s legacy on this week’s Home Grown Radio episode.

Nipsey Hussle was vocal about his support of Dr. Sebi’s teaching on the 2018 Breakfast Club interview during Victory Lap’s press run. This support made it possible for Izeah and DJ Hed to meet at The Marathon store for Nipsey’s hat release. Before Hussle, Dr. Sebi’s teaching has been intersecting with hip hop since Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes introduced sea moss on her 2001 appearance of Who Want to Be A Millionaire. Bowman recalls how his grandfather had asked him after a school basketball practice, “Who is Left Eye?” 

The oldest grandchild breaks down his personal journey with the teachings of The Bowmans, from eating quinoa for breakfast to seeing a person have HIV with his grandfather. 

Throughout the episode, the holistic healer talks about his teaching on plant based food alternatives such as using coconut milk instead of whole milk. The conversation also brought forth Chuck and Hed’s personal health experiences, and the reason Hed got closer to the holistic teachings. 

Watch the episode, and hear what food alternatives fall under Dr. Sebi’s teachings.
