Starting this month, we will do part-one of a three-part series about Lifestyle Medicine, Culinary Medicine and Coaching in Behaviour Change. This month, Shirley talks about this month about Culinary Medicine and the benefits. I asked the following questions: Tell us what is culinary medicine and why did you choose culinary medicine? Tell us your role and how important is culinary medicine- are we what we eat? What are the benefits and is there a link between eating healthy and following a diet? Food is social, how important is it to have home cooked meals and eating together? What are the benefits for athletes and those who want to lead a healthy lifestyle? What questions do you often get Shirley?  I don’t mind trying to eat healthier meals at home, but 2 things stop me: I don’t feel comfortable cooking and have never learned how to do it well. My children and spouse are very picky eaters and won’t eat healthy food if I cook it  at home. Grocery shopping can be expensive. How can I justify making more meals at home when our  budget is already tight?  I don’t have enough time to shop, cook, clean up, etc  For more information, Shirley where can people contact you? Stay tuned next month, Shirley will be talking about coaching for behaviour change. Joining her will be Dr. Owen Garrett.   The link Culinary Institute of America  https://www.ciachef.edu/online-resources/ To contact Shirley Garrett https://proactivehealthcoach.com/about.html Back on the show, is Dr. Bob Weil, world renowned Sports Podiatrist and radio host.
