EATING WISDOM

Dr. Weil answers questions and gives us a far-reaching picture of global eating patterns and what's missing from the substance and culture of eating in America today. Food is a major connection between people, and it ought to be pleasurable, he says. Bland and difficult diets that are out of sync with our reference group won't be maintained. The interview format provides a looser, more casual recording than a formal talk or reading. In this example it also adds a personal context and spontaneity that subtract nothing from Dr. Weil's broad understanding of health and eating. A great way to start your new eating practices.
