Summary

Today we’re going to get a deep take on the old cliche, “You are what you eat.” Usually that expression speaks to the impact of food on our bodies, but what is often overlooked is the impact nutrition has on our minds. Dr. Mark Hyman is the author of a book called Food Fix. He studied Buddhism in college and then went on to become a practicing family physician and a leader in the field of Functional Medicine. He’s written thirteen New York Times Bestselling books, including his new one, and is also the host of a podcast called The Doctor’s Farmacy. In this episode, we talk about the impact of food on our mental health, and Dr. Hyman’s view that food is a social justice issue that impacts everything from chronic diseases to climate.

0:00.0	Okay, before we get started with today's episode, I want to let you know about some very
0:05.2	cool programming cool, at least in my opinion, that we're going to run during the month of
0:09.3	May.
0:10.5	Every Monday, during the month of May, we're going to talk to a bold face name, a famous
0:15.4	person about what their inner lives are like.
0:19.2	Really all the people you're going to hear from are willing to spill their guts and say
0:22.6	some fascinating things that are both fascinating and also, I think, useful.
0:27.8	So the series starts on Monday, May 1st.
0:29.7	We're going to kick it off with the actor and long time Buddhist practitioner Michael
0:34.0	Imperioli, who you might remember from the sopranos and the white lotus.
