Introduction – How To Eat in 6 Simple Steps (0-2:20 min)
About Craig Burton Nutritionist CISSN (2:20-8-45 min)
1. Buy It With Thought (8:45-14:40 min)
More than half of what Americans eat is Ultra-Processed foods…and those foods account for 90 percent of the U.S. added sugar intake.
2. Cook It With Care (14:40-24:48 min)
Repeated eating of oil accelerates oxidative degradation of lipids, forming hazardous reactive oxygen species and depleting the natural antioxidant contents of the cooking oil…leading to pathologies such as hypertension, diabetes and vascular inflammation.
3. Use Less Wheat and Meat (24:48-40:55 min)
Could excess amounts of these 2 highly commercial foods be driving our blood sugar and inflammatory disease epidemic? Increases in red meat consumption, especially processed meat, were associated with higher overall mortality rates.
4. Buy Local Foods (40:55-47:20 min)
The simultaneous increases in obesity in almost all countries seem to be driven mainly by changes in the global food system which is producing more processed, affordable, and effectively marketed food than ever before.
5.Serve Just Enough (47:20-51:45 min)
What would motivate people to stop overeating? Self preservation? Guilt? Treat yourself like someone you are responsible for helping (Rule 2. “12 Rules for Life An Antidote To Chaos” by Jordan B Peterson.)
6. Use What is Left (51:45-54:40 min)
Don’t waste food. 925,000,000 people are hungry. 13.1% of people are hungry. 1,300,000,000 billion tons of food is wasted. 33% of food is wasted.
