Hello and welcome back to The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore! Today Jimmy shares his conversation with Lorraine Clissold, who, despite being British by birth, is a food media personality in China. This interview looks at length into the “secrets” that form the basis of Clissold’s new book Why the Chinese Don’t Count Calories: 15 Secrets from a 3,000-Year-Old Food Culture.
She does a good job of communicating an uncritical interpretation of traditional Chinese dietary culture, but Clissold doesn’t seem to have a firm grounding in food science. Still, taken for what it is, this is a fascinating look at the eating habits of a different culture. Particularly so since the Chinese have historically been a fit people until the Western diet began making inroads there. One area where Lorraine agrees with many of our regular guests is in the importance of natural, unprocessed foods and the dangers of chemical additives and preservatives.
Be sure to listen in for some interesting discussion of the Yin and Yang of food temperatures, the role of grains, vegetables, and meat in the Chinese diet, why salad may be BAD for you, and much, MUCH more!
