How Eating Together Prevents Obesity, Addiction And Disease with Shawn Stevenson
Podcast: The Dr. Hyman ShowPublished On: Wed Oct 11 2023
Description: This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, BiOptimizers, Kettle & Fire, and Sensate. Research has shown that the simple habit of sitting down for a meal with loved ones on a consistent basis can directly improve our food choices, reduce the negative effects of stress, and even improve our body composition. It’s not just what we eat, but how we eat, and with whom we’re eating that can make all the difference in the world. Today on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m excited to talk to my good friend, Shawn Stevenson, about why family meals are now on the “endangered” list, what we can do to bring them back, and the power of food to bring families and communities together. Shawn Stevenson is the author of the USA Today National bestseller Eat Smarter and the international bestselling book Sleep Smarter. He’s also the creator of The Model Health Show, featured as the number #1 health podcast in the U.S. with millions of listener downloads each month.
