Science has shown that positive social interaction when dining with family and friends can help us build relationships, it can help bolster our self-esteem, and it can even help us eat more vegetables.” “When you're dining with others, you're more likely to engage with people and not technology at that time.” ________________________________________ CORRECTION: I mistakenly reference Brillat-Savarin’s book as “The Physiology of Eating” (5:35). The correct title is “The Physiology of Taste.” ________________________________________ RESOURCES: Book: The Physiology of Taste by Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin FREE DOWNLOAD: The Anatomy of a Grain Bowl at www.wendybazilian.com/grainbowl ________________________________________ CONNECT WITH WENDY Follow me on Instagram www.Instagram.com/1000WakingMinutes Learn more at WendyBazilian.com ________________________________________ PLEASE SUPPORT: If you’re enjoying 1,000 Waking Minutes, help us grow! • Subscribe to get new episodes as soon as they drop. • Rate & Review the show.
