Curious about how culture and social determinants shape our food choices? Get ready to shift your perspective on nutrition as we chat with Dr. Lora Iannotti, professor of public health and the pioneering director of the E3 nutrition lab. Our conversation uncovers the sobering reality of global malnutrition issues, from child wasting and stunted growth to obesity. Dr. Iannotti pulls back the curtain, revealing the intricate interplay of socio-cultural factors on our dietary habits and their profound impact on global health.
Dive into the world of community-based research and transition from international aid as we spotlight a case study in Kenya. Learn how an ingenious intervention persuaded fishing households to share their catch with young children, striking a balance between improving nutrition and preserving marine ecosystems. Later, we travel to Madagascar to investigate how local wild foods can be a powerful weapon against malnutrition. We also explore the 'hunger season' and its effects on subsistence farming families. This episode is a riveting exploration of how nutrition science, combined with community engagement, can trigger transformative change.
