Summary
Statistics about our population’s health outcomes can sometimes feel overwhelming and disheartening. So many folks around the world are plagued by chronic diseases, obesity, and are caught in the marketing trap of ultra-processed foods that are destroying their health. Unfortunately, we can’t control what other people do – but what we do have influence over is our own health and our families’ lifestyle.

We discussed important principles from The Eat Smarter Family Cookbook, like the important connection between culture and eating habits, the science behind shared family meals, and so much more.

This episode contains tips and strategies you can implement today, including how to get your children excited about family dinners, how to discourage screentime at the dinner table, and tips for helping your family develop a culture of health and wellness that will be your legacy for years to come.
