4 books2 followersEddie Garza is a vegan chef, cookbook author, and leading figure in the movement to reform food systems in Latinx communities. Eddie and his work have been featured by a wide variety of media outlets in the United States and Latin America, including CNN, ¡HOLA! TV, People en Español, Telemundo, Univision, TV Azteca (Mexico), Canal Nuestra Tele (Colombia), TV Venezuela, GoTV (Honduras), El Tiempo and El Colombiano (Colombia), and many more.

Eddie grew up in the Mexican-American border town of Brownsville, Texas, a region plagued by childhood obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Like many of Eddie's childhood peers, he struggled with serious weight problems from an early age, maxing out at 310 pounds by the time he was 21 years old. It was when Eddie transitioned to a plant-centric diet that he was able to naturally lose over 150 pounds and reverse his declining health.
Eddie is a sought-after speaker, culinary coach, and thought leader on issues related to Latinx health. He has lectured and presented at top universities, culinary schools, and major conferences in the US and Latin America, including South by Southwest in Austin and Expo en Verde Ser in Mexico City.
