Host Marcus Guiliano is a chef on a mission.

He is an award-winning chef, green restaurateur, real-food activist, professional speaker, restaurant consultant, and ultramarathoner. He is also owner of Aroma Thyme Bistro, the first green-certified restaurant in the Hudson Valley of New York. Dealing with numerous health challenges in the 1990s, Marcus discovered healthy food and healthy living and was able to eliminate all of the medications he was taking and cure an asthmatic condition he’d had since birth. Now besides opening and managing a green-certified restaurant in New York State, he devotes his career to promoting a whole-food, whole-life approach to health, which includes sustainable, ethical business practices.
