There's been the pre 27 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 2: order campaign, and you think it's here, it's out, it 28 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 2: can never come back.

Why it's an interesting journey 32 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 2: on how we got to this book and how we 33 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 2: chose this. So we hadn't planned this. The plan with 34 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 2: my publisher was to do very similar to the Gut 35 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 2: Repair Plan, the Mediterranean Plan. And I sat down and 36 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: I battled with it because I just said, Mediterranean isn't 37 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 2: a plan, it's a way of life. And as an author, 38 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: when I write, I go through that kind of journey 39 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: of you know, I think a lot. I get really 40 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 2: immersed into the project. And I spoke to my publisher 41 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 2: and I said, I need to do something completely different. 42 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 2: I'm honestly feliciting of the world's worst liar, and I 43 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: just it was the only thing I could do was 44 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 2: right from my heart, and I felt confident enough in 45 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: my own journey to share personal stuff and personal journey 46 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 2: with food. And I actually thought about it a lot, 47 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: and it's probably my Greek background is actually and my 48 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 2: Greek upbringing is the very foundation of why I'm a 49 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 2: clinical nutritionist today, growing up Mediterranean and that appreciation. 50 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 1: Well, why is the med diet the best way to 51 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: eat for health? 52 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 2: Well we discovered, well, research is discovered in nineteen fifty 53 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 2: that all of a sudden, people were living They were 54 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 2: kind of looking at longevity around the world, and they 55 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 2: realized people around the Mediterranean were living eighteen ninety one 56 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 2: hundred and they were living with next to obesity, very 57 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 2: low amounts of like scarce amounts of cardiovascular disease. And 58 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,399 Speaker 2: there are all of a sudden going hold on a minute, 59 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: what's going on here? 60 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: No modern lifestyle diseases? 61 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 2: Correct, absolutely, and what can we take away from this? 62 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 2: And I always say, with the Mediterranean diet, it's not 63 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: it's it's something that is not by design. It is 64 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 2: by default because people who live around that it is. 65 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: It's arid, it's rocky. You can't if you've been to 66 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 2: the Greek islands. You'll notice that it's quite windy, and 67 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 2: it's rocky, and it's and that it's there's cliffs and 68 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 2: they don't didn't have the land to be able to farm, 69 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: so they had to pick foods that were seasonal. It's 70 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: more fruit and vegetables and beans and legumes. And you 71 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: always think of Greeks and how proud they are of 72 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: their gardens and it's a very big thing. So that 73 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 2: is and it was really interesting. But you think about 74 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: why it is so amazing. It's it's the it's a 75 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 2: plant primarily a plant based diet. People often think of 76 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 2: the Mediterranean diet and they might think of like sort 77 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: of laki and and different things. It's actually it's primarily 78 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 2: plant based because meat was scarce because of because of 79 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 2: the landscape. So what are some. 80 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: Key foods of the Mediterranean diet and perhaps their health benefits? 81 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 2: So first, when like the first as soon as you 82 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: say that to me, one of the my first vision 83 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: is tomatoes. 84 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: Yes, it's like red, big, beautiful ripe tomatoes. 85 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 2: Taste Yes, that's my first vision is and and I'm 86 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 2: a very visual person, so straight away I think of 87 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: a beautiful ripe tomato and then I think of all 88 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: the wonderful lycopene in the tomato, which is an incredible 89 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 2: antioxidant that's really wonderful for prostate but also excellent for 90 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 2: our heart health, so it's a great antioccident And you 91 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 2: think about that two plus vitamin C as well, so 92 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: it's great for our immune system. And then I'd think 93 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 2: about things like feta cheese, of course, like I love feta, 94 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 2: and then that's like out of my cheese is like 95 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 2: I always think fetter is one of them. It's got 96 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 2: lower matter of fat in it that feta cheese has. 97 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 2: It's a great source of calcium as well as protein. 98 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: My other thought would, obviously I think about all the 99 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 2: different herbs like oregano that you think about in Greek cooking. 100 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 2: Lots of herbs dominate basil. Basils wonderful as and antioxid 101 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,119 Speaker 2: and it's great for also lowering blood pressure and also 102 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 2: really good for lowering trugless rides too, so it's wonderful 103 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 2: for heart health. And tomato and basil together I think better. Well, yeah, 104 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 2: but they're a marriage made in food heaven because they're 105 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 2: both very cardio sort of what cardio bascular health. But 106 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 2: then I kind in my mind drives off to when 107 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 2: I think about my own childhood and what I was 108 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 2: brought up on. And I was brought up on a 109 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 2: lot of legumes, so where we would be brought up 110 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 2: on things like lentils, which which as a little girl Greek, 111 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: the greet did you eat them or they? Of course? 112 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 2: I hate them? No, I love them. One. I loved 113 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 2: all Greek food when I was I was very unusual 114 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 2: compared to when I think about. 115 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: I would just think, my say, five year olds, are 116 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: you serving me? 117 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 2: Mum? No, I've always been a good ada like that. Yeah, 118 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 2: I'm just and I'm going I'll explain why in a minute. 119 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 2: But I used to and this is a bit was 120 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 2: very risky in my house because my Papa would live 121 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 2: with us. But I would say, so lentil in Greek 122 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 2: is fucky, and I thought that was the best thing 123 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 2: to say that I would walk around say Papa, can 124 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 2: we have some fuck eats? It was the way that 125 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: I could swear without swear. It's so dumb, but anyway, 126 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 2: it was so funny. But I think about and as 127 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 2: I write this book, all those memories came flooding to me, 128 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 2: which was why every recipe has got a little story 129 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 2: in the book. But then I think about, you know, 130 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 2: we had so many legumes in my house growing up, 131 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 2: and legumes are affordable daily two to three times a week. 132 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 2: Split pea which is a like a squirrespee called father 133 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 2: which is basically like periods, but peas would have that 134 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 2: every Saturday. Greens dominated, so the wild greens were really big, 135 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 2: and my paple grew them. Of course, I can't even 136 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 2: forget the amount of olive oil. Olive oil was always 137 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 2: on our table, next to salt and pepper, so you 138 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 2: always had We always had the pora there. There was 139 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 2: always beautiful bread, and it was the dipping and then 140 00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 2: we often he used to actually put a little dish 141 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 2: of v and dice up a bit of red onion 142 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 2: in there as well. So all of that food was 143 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 2: very dominant. But you think of olive oil, I mean, 144 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 2: it's got oliocancel in it, it's got a leak acid 145 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 2: in it, wonderful for heart, anti inflammatory and people in 146 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 2: Greece and also longevity. All that omega three people in 147 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 2: Greece would have up to I always tell my patients 148 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: medicinally try to get two tablespoons a day. People in 149 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 2: grease have up to six tablespoons a day of olive 150 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 2: extraversionally well, yeah, which is a lot when you think 151 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: about it. But it's the salads. It's the I'm thinking 152 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: how because it can be a little bit if you 153 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 2: try to drink it straight or if you've noticed you've 154 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 2: ever had it and you think. 155 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: Well, I think the TikTok trend was taking shots. 156 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can shot off. It was been debunked. Ye, 157 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 2: it's experts. You can't do shots. But if you think 158 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 2: about absorbing, enjoying the end of a meal and swishing, 159 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 2: getting a bit of bread and mopping up the plate, delicious. 160 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 2: That's one of my favorite That's actually one of my 161 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 2: favorite rectis in the book is a Catherean salad because 162 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 2: it's got the rusks the PUCKSI mother are, which is 163 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 2: a Greek rask, all in the bottom, and at the 164 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 2: end of it you actually get to you get to 165 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 2: eat the rusk that's absorbed, or the salad dressing. And 166 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: which is it's so good now dreaming of it now. 167 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to get your thoughts. I recently read a 168 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: review calling for world recognition of the planetarian diet. So basically, 169 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: I mean so many, there were so many studies. I 170 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: think it's the most study diet, the Mediterranean diet, and 171 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: you know, obviously we all know that it's wonderful for 172 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: our health. So this planetarian diet is basically the principles 173 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: of the med diet, but adapted to each country's locally 174 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: available foods. I mean, I think this is fabulous. Yeah, 175 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: so tell me what are your thoughts about it? And 176 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: how can we make the Mediterranean diet work in Australia 177 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: with our produce. 178 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 2: We can so easily. I mean, I give me a 179 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 2: challenge and I will give you a solution. And I 180 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 2: absolutely love this. So bringing the Mediterranean diet in first 181 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 2: and foremost people forget. They often think because like sometimes 182 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 2: certain like fish can be expensive for example, and you 183 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 2: can look at the budget as well, salmon, and salmon 184 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: is fright for leg I bought it. I bought two 185 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 2: filets the other day and it was twenty two dollars 186 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 2: and I was looking at it. I was like, that's 187 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 2: two filets. But you can get cheaper cuts of fish, 188 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 2: but not only forgetting it, don't you know? I always 189 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 2: say to people, tinfish is fine in moderation. I mean 190 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 2: it's not my preference. But you know, if you did 191 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: that once a fortnight or twice a fortnite to balance 192 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 2: out a meal, you can still use tinfish other things. 193 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: Not forgetting legumes, like people forget when they make soups 194 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 2: and stewice and even like piluffy which is salads and 195 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,599 Speaker 2: salads and stuff. You can always bring legumes in it. 196 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 2: Like they're a dollar. They're seriously so cheap, and they've 197 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 2: full of protein. Chickpeas as well. I mean, there's like 198 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,319 Speaker 2: they're an excellent source of protein. Plus we know they're 199 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: amazing for guts. So I always had to people think 200 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 2: about that. And the other thing I encourage people to 201 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 2: do to bring to live Mediterranean in Australia is do 202 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: what Mediterranean people do, shop seasonally. So when you learn 203 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 2: so it's when you learn seasonal eating, you can actually 204 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 2: you will save. I'm a seasonal eater. First of all, 205 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 2: it's what your body needs at that time of year. 206 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 2: You think about potatoes in winter and to get to 207 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 2: all those kind of root vegetables to help keep you warm, 208 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 2: but you think about citrus in winter to support your 209 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 2: immune system because of the weather changes, all the leafy 210 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 2: greens that come out in spring that we have in 211 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 2: all of our salads, which are great for supporting detox pathways. 212 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 2: You think of melons in summer which are hydrating. You 213 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 2: think of avocados and olives in autumn to fatten us 214 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 2: up for winter. It's all logical eating. But the thing 215 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 2: is you will save so much money. And I always 216 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 2: said to my patients when I'm presenting about learning season 217 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 2: or eating it is what is at the front of 218 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 2: the supermarket. It's not because the buyer there had a 219 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 2: bad day and ordered too many avocados or too many 220 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 2: many rawberries. It's because they're in season locally like locally farmed. 221 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 2: They're harvested when they're ripe, and they're nutrient dense, so 222 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 2: they are delicious. So produced when it's harvested, when it's ripe, 223 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 2: and it's prime nutrient density. So it's and I just say, 224 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 2: just shop at the front of the supermarket and make 225 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 2: recipes according to that so and over time you will 226 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 2: save so much money the foods had minimal transportation. Then 227 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 2: there's the other side of things, so looking at legging 228 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 2: seasonal produce, different cuts of meat, different cuts of proteins, 229 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 2: not forgetting You can also use other things like tofu, 230 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: which is cheap to kind of accelerate the nutritional profile 231 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 2: of a meal, and frozen options too, which are a 232 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 2: lot cheaper. But think about the Mediterranean because it's not 233 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 2: just what you eat. It's a holistic approach. Think about 234 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 2: preparing food together, sitting down together, making it a part 235 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 2: of life culture, No phones, the togetherness, the warmth, the 236 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 2: friendship that entire, feeling, the hydration, a little bit of 237 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: red wine and just celebrating life, love, being together and 238 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 2: beautiful food.
