Speaker: Ilia Regini on Health Through Food.
SUMMARY OF TALK
Ilia prefers to buy at a Farmer's Market rather than in the food stores because most processed foods are not good for you. Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) is hidden under various other ingredients. She listed the following foods as preferred; Olive oil, garlic, serrano pepper, onions, celery, crimini mushrooms, lentils, turnips and parsley. Our Vijaya is a registered nutritionist (Ilia is not) and Vijaya somewhat disagreed with much of what Ilia said saying that Ilia's ideas are radical. Vijaya said that "we should take a balanced approach to our diet". Anne said something like "If you believe in something it will work for you".
Next FRIDAY AT THE BRIAR'S our speakers will be Eric Lebenson and Mark Seiden on Behavior Profile Analysis.
