How much personal choice do we really have when it comes to our food choices? The science is clear—our processed, sugary, starchy diet is the single biggest cause of disease and death. And health outcomes are disproportionately worse in minority communities. There are social and cultural inputs at play and many reasons we need to begin looking at health beyond the individual to a community and population-based level.In this mini-episode, Dr. Hyman speaks with Dr. Sonia Angell about how when it comes to social determinants and what we view as cultural tendencies for food choices, much has been imposed from outside influences. He also speaks with Pam Koch about the need to move away from a system that overwhelmingly supports growing commodity crops such as corn, soy, and wheat, and move toward incentivizing the production and purchase of fresh fruits and vegetables.Dr. Sonia Angell is a former Deputy Commissioner at the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), where she oversaw the Division of Prevention and Primary Care. Dr. Angell is a practicing physician, board certified in internal medicine, and on faculty at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University and New York Presbyterian Hospital.Pam Koch, EdD, RD. Pam teaches both Nutritional Ecology and Community Nutrition to master and doctoral students at Teachers College, Columbia University. She conducts research about the connections between a just, sustainable food system and healthy eating. She translates her research into curricula for schoolteachers and recommendations for policymakers.

We know all too well the visible forms of racism in our society. Less visible, however, is how our food system acts as the deadliest weapon used against the poor and minorities— keeping them poor, sick and fat, hijacking their brains and biology.The science is clear—our processed, sugary, starchy diet is the single biggest cause of disease and death—type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, cancer, and even dementia. And your zip code is more important than your genetic code in determining your risk of disease and death. If you are African American you are 80% more likely to be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, over 4 times as likely to have kidney failure, and 3.5 times as likely to suffer amputations as whites. I’ve explored these topics with a number of my guests on this podcast. This mini-episode of The Doctor’s Farmacy includes portions of my past conversations on this podcast with president of Black Lives Matter for the area of Greater New York, Hawk Newsome, Columbia University and Teachers College researcher Pam Koch and award winning NIH funded investigator and practicing family physician, Dr. Sean Lucan.

This week on Eating Matters, host Kim Kessler is talking about kids and food and how all should be able to grow up eating nutritious food without the age old struggle of parents versus kids. Welcoming guests Pam Koch, Executive Director of the Tisch Food Center for Food, Education, and Policy at Columbia Teacher’s College, and Stefania Patinella, former Nutrition Director of Children’s Aid Society, they kick off the show debunking the myth that kids as a whole do not like eating healthy food. If food is both delicious and nutritious, the guests concur that kids will take to new menus in schools, for instance. Society has instilled many of the ideas of how difficult it is apparently to change kids’ diets for the better. After the break, the group talks how simply getting children involved in their food system conjures interest and desire to eat fresh foods. Tune in to for a wonderful discussion and to hear about those on the forefront of this matter making a difference. This program was brought to you by Cain Vineyard & Winery. “The biggest myth is that kids don’t like healthy food.” [1:57] —Stefania Patinella on Eating Matters “Parents think that kids aren’t interested in and aren’t able to help cooking at home.” [6:52] —Pam Koch on Eating Matters

It takes a village to raise a child, especially one that is healthy and well-fed. New York City has stepped up to this challenge and through a local initiative, known as Food Works has shaped policy for community, schools and childhood nutrition that makes-- programs and organizations, such as Green Carts, City Harvest and NYC Food and Fitness Partnership that build a health-conscious community. How can we share this model for adoption among other communities to share the health? A panel moderated by Pam Koch '98, Kristen Mancinelli '08, TC Trustee Laurie M. Tisch and Sharon Wong, Community Development Manager at NYC Food and Fitness Partnership.

From Apples to Zucchini -- growing and preparing your own healthy foods may be easier than you thought. Have you ever wondered where does my food come from? Or how do I make healthy foods taste great? Healthy eating habits should start early, and school curricula are now teaching students the fundamentals of whole foods with programs like schoolyard gardens and kitchen classrooms Christiane Baker will share how adopting these lessons in school can carry over to the home and help to instill a healthy appetite, while Pam Koch performs a cooking demonstration and shares tips for incorporating local, fresh fruits, veggies and whole grains into your family's daily diets. Tasting is encouraged!
