Michael Pollen, author of “Omnivore’s Dilemma” and “In Defense of Food” talks to Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! about the current food/health crisis.
The huge take-away from his latest book is “Eat food. Not too much. Mostly Plants.” This is a great mantra to live by each day. I try to eat something raw and fresh (fruits and veggies, not sushi) at each meal. I have found that eating an apple or grapefruit first cuts my appetite so I don’t overeat everything else. Plus it helps me avoid my main dietary weakness: White Cheddar Cheeze-Its!
