- Empreendedorismo
Don’t miss Part 2 of this episode where we touch on how diets can lead to almost religious dogma, how lifestyle and diets affect relationships, as well as genetics as it relates to food.
We pick up where the conversation left off in episode 16!
Key Takeaways
[:09] Tony sets up Part 2 of the discussion on the complexities of food knowledge and how America’s relationship to food has evolved into lifestyles.
Food Religion [1:17] What if you become so rigid about food that it defines how you live your life? Mekai touches on the respect that is required in order to accept people in their choices, food or otherwise.
Food relationships [6:25] Andrea shares her own understanding of the importance of remaining flexible in her diet as well as how teaching people about food can be part of the process.
Internet, don’t cancel Ron! [11:30] Is there actual credence to be lent to studies that claim that the more you hang out with overweight people, the more you are at risk of being overweight yourself?
Genetics and epigenetics [13:25] Though your genetic history will have an impact on body composition, there is research pointing to the foods you eat having an effect on gene activation.
The crazy world of vitamins [16:01] Mekai shares some information on how genetics can play a role in the metabolization of certain compounds as well as touches on nutrient depletion in our food supplies.
Variety is the spice of life! [19:00] We’ve domesticated a restrained amount of plants and animals, so how can we expect the variety our bodies may require?
The number will astound you [21:44] How many plants and vegetables a week to maintain a healthy gut microbiome? Andrea offers the most recent studies.
The multiple factors of health [22:54] There is an intuitive understanding that healthy lifestyle overall is more important than just good food alone...
Don’t let overwhelm win [24:30] Before Tony closes out the podcast, Andrea offers that while all this may seem enormous and overwhelming: if you’re going to start anywhere, start with food!
