LS 040: Why Tradition Should Guide What and How We Eat with Jenny from Nourished Kitchen Apr 24, 2019

Show notes

In this session of Live Simply, The Podcast, Kristin talks to Jenny from Nourished Kitchen. Determining what to eat can be confusing, particularly if you live in western culture. It seems like everyone has an opinion, from the government to doctors. For years, I struggled with figuring out what to eat, or I felt guilt for eating a particular food (like butter, rice, or beef). And it didn't help that every expert seemed to have a different opinion. That's why looking at tradition is so important! Looking to the past ends the confusion about what we should eat.

We talk about:

traditional eating and what exactly it looks like to eat like our ancestors
the work of Dr. Weston A. Price and why his research is important when considering traditional eating
seasonal eating

We also talk about how looking at traditional eating can end the confusion around dairy, grains, and other currently-controversial foods. And what exactly it looks like to eat these traditional foods in our modern day culture.
