It’s not about willpower, it’s
about knowledge! Obesity and chronic disease is a crisis plaguing America. More
than 65 percent of Americans are overweight or obese -- and that number is
growing just like our waistlines. In this practical, solutions-based program,
Dr. Joel Fuhrman shares his revolutionary health plan ¾ it’s a healthy, effective
and scientifically proven way to shed weight quickly and reclaim vitality and
good health.
NOVA scienceNOW Can I Eat That?
Oct. 31, 10 p.m. on WNED-TV
What are the secrets
behind your favorite foods? Why are some treats -- like chocolate chip cookies
-- delectable, while others -- like cookies made with mealworms -- disgusting? You
might think you understand what makes something sweet, salty or bitter, but host
David Pogue gets a taste of a much more complicated truth, as he ventures into
labs and kitchens where everything from apple pie to Thanksgiving turkey to
juicy grasshoppers is diced, sliced, dissected and put under the microscope. If
scientists can uncover exactly what's behind the mouthwatering flavors and
textures we take for granted every day, could they help us enjoy our food more
-- without packing on the pounds?
