Spotlight on People's HealthAn Interview About Healthy Eating From a Professional Chef
16 051-eng-wb4-(journalisticwriting)
EARLY FINISHERSEvaluate yourself: How well do you understand how to write a travel article?
June 08, 2017Want to look and feel your best? Eating healthy can reduce your risk of many illnesses such as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.Here are some tips for making time in the kitchen more enjoyable and meals healthier from professional Chef LaLa.
Q: You're a successful chef. How did you get into cooking?A: I come from a family of restaurateurs. My dad's a chef, so I was inspired by my family's cooking. I went to med school but I went back to what I initially loved: cooking.
Q: You're also a nutritionist. What inspired you to learn more about health and nutrition?A: As a chef, I was invited to teach at a local church. A lot of the questions people were asking were about diabetes, and I couldn't answer them. I thought, “If I'm going to teach people about wellness and health, I need to be a good teacher with the right information.”
Q: When did you start having a healthy relationship with food? A: When I started to better understand the relation between food and illness, I made it a priority to feed myself in a healthy, delicious way.
Q: What are some of the benefits of cooking at home?A: Cooking at home with your family or friends is great. For example, we go out to the garden and see what herbs are sprouting. My son smells them and chooses what smells good. I'm teaching him how to eat for health. My mom always taught me how to eat for health. She encouraged me to eat chicken for protein, carrots for eye health, and so on. That's how I grew up, and I try to share that with my son.
Q: Is there anything else you'd like to share?A: In my family there are many people with diabetes and heart disease. The best decision I've ever made was to stop and take time for myself. I enjoy meditating, jogging, and reading. I wake up half an hour earlier than I need to so I can drink a cup of coffee alone before I have to drive my son to school.
