About this episode

What you eat has a lot to do with your overall health and longevity.  But what you eat will depend on what you prepare or cook for your meals.  And what you prepare for your meals will depend on what you buy when you shop.  So wouldn’t it be helpful to know best practices on how to shop and cook?  In this episode Dr. Nedd will cover:

  • Tips to make your food shopping as effective as possible.
  • Food labeling tricks used by food companies you need to be alert to.
  • Advice on food prep and cooking practices to avoid health issues, including the avocado warning.
  • Why a pressure cooker comes in handy and can make some foods healthier for you.
