About 14 years ago, while she was expecting her first child, she became intolerant to lactose and eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, several years later, she learned she was at high risk for breast cancer\u2014and followed her oncologist\u2019s advice to remove soy from her diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She launched Bake Me Healthy in 2023, basing her recipes on sunflower protein flour, a byproduct of sunflower oil production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\"
