Let me introduce Jeff Novick, RD, nutrition health expert and author. I've been reading his work and viewing his recorded lectures on You Tube for several years, now finally meet him in person. This very funny, brilliant dynamo makes the subject of nutrition riveting and elevates it to the position of primary importance for human health. After all, this is a 10-day program where dietary change is central to preventing and reversing all types of chronic diseases. Jeff's lectures have focused on the WEIGHT DEBATE and HOW TO EAT MORE, WEIGH LESS, LIVE LONGER. Tomorrow he'll conduct a cooking class and lecture on HOW TO CHOOSE THE HEALTHIEST FOODS. This gifted speaker has the unique ability to distill science and data into principles anyone can understand. He empowers his audience with essential facts and easy principles that they can apply daily as well as lifelong in achieving optimal health. His website is www.jeffnovick.com.
The following is a segment of his lecture on Calorie Density - Dilution Is The Solution:
Dilute the calorie density of your meals by filling 1/2 your plate (by visual volume) with intact whole grains, starchy vegetables and/or legumes and the other half with non-starchy vegetables and/or fruit.
