90. How Italians Think About Food Differently (and What We Can Learn From Them)- Part 2

from Become a Confident Eater: Overcome Overeating, Establish Healthy Eating Habits · host Amber Abila - Binge Eating + Overeating Coach

Have you ever wondered why the land of pasta, bread, and wine is filled with so many healthy, thin people?In this 3 part series, I’m interviewing Isabella Drake, a half Italian/half American friend, who studied food production for 3 years in Italy and got her masters in food technology. Let’s learn what Italy gets right about eating and how we can eat more like Italians.In part 2, we cover…- Do people in Italy ever talk about “mindful eating,” or is it just naturally built into how they eat?- What surprises you about portion sizes, snacking habits, or how Italians respond to hunger and fullness?- You’ve lived in both Italy and the U.S. — what emotional or psychological differences have you seen in how people talk about food, guilt, or body image?- Why do you think Italians seem to experience less guilt or anxiety around food?- How is wheat processed different in Italy? Why can gluten intolerant people eat bread in Italy?🎁 Free gift!
