“Focusing on Food” with Terces Engelhart and Justin Jackson
Originally aired Saturday, December 16th, 5-6 PM (PST) on San Francisco’s KQKE 960AM “The Quake”
Hear about the many personal, social, and cultural ways to focus on food. With a commitment to staying healthy, sometimes it’s difficult to know how to shop and what products to trust. Conscious decisions - about what we eat and the quality of what we can afford – are more important than ever. In response to the age-old adage “You are what you eat” — nutritionist and author, Adele Davis said, “We are indeed much more than what we eat, but what we eat can help us to be much more than what we are.”
From personal choices to the larger issue of global food awareness, this program explores:
- the significant rewards of mindful eating and mindful cooking - how healthy foods can still be “fast-foods” - even when you’re on the run - how the food you eat affects more than just your waistline - how at-home eating habits become a health legacy for children, and - why social, environmental and economic issues relate to food everywhere
