Michael Pollan - "In Defense of Food"

Michael Pollan is an author journalist, who had published many books about approaches to healthy eating. In his book “In Defense of Food”, Pollan boils down some simple rules to stay away from the big monsters, industrialized foods and return to simple eating. In the following video he discusses his book “In Defense of Food" with an audience at Google’s Mountain View, CA.

I chose to post this video because we have many thoughts in common and I believe that he summarizes my thoughts about nutrition, environmental and personal health. His advices can help many people rethink the way they are eating and therefore change the health course of their lives.

If you have doubts about whether you should eat butter or margarine, whether you should believe what the big food industry tells you to eat is healthy or not, or whether you should spend more money in high quality food and eat less or spend little in junk food and eat more, watch this video and he can answer you all that.

I also know that for many of you reading this now, the video is not at all new for you or that any of his thoughts are new. However, it is always good to listen great knowledge one more time. So, KEEP IN MIND - stay away from industrialized food as much as possible, and you will be doing good for you health and for the environment!!!
