Dans le cadre de notre semaine spéciale de replay [Bon appétit les petits !], (re)écoutez l'épisode [#103 - Alimentation et grossesse : trop d'interdits ? avec Jane-Lise Villegas].Quand on est enceinte, ce que l'on mange est déterminant pour le bon développement du bébé que l'on attend, mais aussi pour sa propre santé. L'alimentation pendant la grossesse est donc soumise à un nombre important de recommandations, qui viennent aussi bien du corps médical que de l'entourage. Cette question, qui relève de base plutôt de l'ordre de l'intime, est même devenue un sujet de politiques publiques, intégré notamment dans le Programme National Nutrition Santé (PNNS). Pour éviter les risques de listériose, il serait ainsi interdit de consommer de la viande ou des poissons cru, du fromage au lait cru. Pour limiter les risques de toxoplasmose, il faudrait aussi faire particulièrement attention aux fruits et légumes crus... Le repas pendant la grossesse devient alors souvent un casse-tête plutôt qu'un moment de plaisir, et l'alimentation peut devenir un vrai poids pour les futures mamans. Mais toutes ces injonctions relativement récentes, qui sont parfois source de débats au sein même du corps médical, sont-elles réellement justifiées ? Au delà de ce qu'il faudrait éviter, que faudrait-il manger quand on est enceinte mais aussi en post partum ?Pour y voir plus clair, Fanny Giansetto reçoit Jane-Lise Villegas. Naturopathe à Paris, et spécialisée sur les questions d'alimentation, cela fait plusieurs années que Jane-Lise travaille avec des patientes pour les accompagner sans jugement dans leur grossesse et leur post partum.Références mentionnées dans cet épisode:Julia Simon, Bien vivre le 4e trimestre au naturel Isabelle Doumenc, Perturbateurs endocriniens, une bombe à retardement pour nos enfantsOponopono, traiteur pour post partumJolly mama, une marque de super-aliments et compléments étudiés pour répondre aux besoins nutritionnels spécifiques des femmes enceintes et allaitantesJane-Lise Villegas, naturopathe*** Pour nous soutenir : - Abonnez-vous à notre podcast ; - Donnez votre avis en mettant des étoiles et des commentaires sur votre plateforme d'écoute préférée ; - Parlez d'Écotable et de son podcast autour de vous ; - Allez manger dans nos restaurants vertueux et délicieux ! *** Écotable est une entreprise dont la mission est d'accompagner les acteurs du secteur de la restauration dans leur transition écologique.

Zaynab worked as a food editor at Bon Appétit magazine, is a current contributor to New York Times Cooking, and is the author of the new book, Third Culture Cooking: Classic Recipes for a New Generation.We explore how cooking can become a powerful place to find ourselves and to discover our unique preferences and aesthetic.

In the restaurant world, infant mortality is the norm. Nearly two-thirds of new eateries shut down in their first year. Only one in five lives to see its fifth birthday. So when a restaurant—not just any restaurant, but a plant-based fine-dining spot—thrives for decades, it's not just impressive. It's almost mythic. Enter Rich Landau and Kate Jacoby, the married duo behind Vedge, the acclaimed Philadelphia restaurant that's helped redefine what plant-based food can be. With nods from Bon Appétit, GQ, Food & Wine, and the James Beard Foundation, Rich and Kate have built more than a restaurant—they've built a movement. One that proves vegetables don't need to play second fiddle—they can own the stage. Now, I don't know how these two do it. My wife and I love each other, but even the suggestion of collaborating on a work project sends us both reaching for diplomatic escape routes. Yet somehow, Rich and Kate not only run a business together—they do it with passion, purpose, and of course, with pastry. Rich got his start in the '90s with Horizons, a bold bet on vegetable-forward cuisine back when people didn't even know how to pronounce “vegan,” let alone what it meant. Kate joined with a background in hospitality, bringing a refined palate and a pastry chef's touch. But this episode isn't just about food. It's about values. About running toward the hard stuff. About how two people built something meaningful—together—and stuck with it through all the chaos the restaurant industry throws your way. If you're a foodie, an entrepreneur, or just a fan of staying married while doing the impossible—this one's for you.
