Dr. Sharita Yazid

Naturopathic doctor and “wholistic” (gedagte, liggaam, spirit) health consultant Dr. Sharita Yazid first set foot on African soil in 2006 during her 20/20 investment group trip to Egypt and Ghana with historian Runoko Rashidi. Nou, vir meer as 12 jaar, the Compton native has had the pleasure of calling Ghana her new home. Yazid’s choice to move from the U.S. to Ghana with her six children as a single parent was one that came with little hesitation and a lot of prayers.

“I said you know what, I can do this, I can do Africa, and I can be in a space like this that is peaceful. The rent is cheap, the food is cheap, and my money can go a long way and the crime is much lower coming from most parts of the states that I have lived in,"Het sy gesê.

Since moving to Ghana, Yazid has been able to establish herself and her family by continuing her practice of being a naturopath doctor and “wholistic” health consultant. Met verloop van tyd, she began making media appearances to discuss the healing benefits of a vegan diet.

“People everywhere are sick and tired of being sick and tired. What I did come with is the approach that I’m just showing you what you already know but you are ignoring it. It’s right there in your face. Your mother told you, your grandmother told you, and it’s been a tradition for thousands of years. All I am doing is reminding you [the benefits of being a vegan],"Het sy gesê.
