and i think. with. the. wealthy british. market why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy. on our.

welcome back to all the parts we're discussing the politics of food with the inventor of the parisian dive john michelle kwan mr cohen just before the break we were talking about administrative staff in order to limit or. counter obesity epidemic and in many developed countries it is well established fact that the minority of patients in health care system take up the majority of resources the lion's share of the resources and treating many of those illnesses associated with this city is becoming increasingly more expensive do you think that those people who don't watch the diet who don't try to limit or improve their health or limit their weight through decisive action do they have to pay higher taxes than the rest of us who try to keep it under control. not really because they

are responsible. to try. to work out some products and to sell it and to make advertising's because it's a long way between production economy. t.v. and then consumption so we have to take care of them but we have to take the problem. speaking a lot about this problem is something which creates some mornings you know and. all that be able to be. the engine of. bad habits and that it reduces your life. to give for obtaining more years to live you claim that the parisian diet help after a million people in france to lose weight and i wonder why do you think that these principles could be just as effective in other countries because as we discussed

this interview it is the french food culture itself taking longer lunches. have your food sharing it with your friends all the slowness of the pleasure of the french culture that seems to be facilitating eating habits of the french people why do you think it could be so easily transferable to other countries where the environment is so different people work longer hours or don't have that much time the problems are the thing i mean every country and the good of the thim and the difference is into the cooking. portion so what i try to do every time i'm in another country is to change a little bit the recipients to customize the recipient is for the country. for example for america i. understood that the right. didn't have to get very

complicated complex species or complex cheese so i tried to use common cheese and to work out the good recipes for the countries and they're the same in every country but the difference and a word friends his ability to bring two countries is the quality of the cooking and the fact that for example when you want to prepare. and if you put some servers into and some months and you frozen it this is different that you're good and this is a french cooking but my point is that french people can afford to do that because of the way of life in france the average work week in france is thirty thirty eight hours if i'm not mistaken the average work rate in the united states is forty two hours and french at the top of that they have a very generous social system have very good childcare system so french people can

afford to take time to cook and to take longer lunches and i think that this is something that may change with their sterrett imaginaries and people having to work multiple jobs or sometimes longer hours so is there any any threat here that the financial crisis that some european countries that experience only may change your ability to some tricks that i live a part of my time in new york on the sick and the new and. to make my my shopping in fair way and in this store even if the meat is too large for me i'm able to get it into to share it and consumes the pot for the day after i also have some benefit in america is the fact that all the products are really prepared i can buy salads and without dressings. i can buy fruits always

yet still still cut for example and this is my problem to share my portion when i put it in my fridge the same for the yogurt but the advantage in united states. instead of friends is for example i can buy one you're good and not for your goats or ate your goats and i can't really decide to consume so we have benefits because the food is prepared and we have. convenience because sometimes it's two to five year or to launch but at the same time you mentioned in the first part of the program that food culture is very much associated with your family traditions and in france if i'm not mistaken seventy five percent of food is prepared at home in the united states that traditional home cooking is pretty much lost i mean it may be recovering these days with the footy culture but still people

are not you still cooking at home and sometimes they simply don't have the skills of doing that so it's not just a matter of convenience but actually the matter of how society is structured and. you know the traditions the family tradition this is more important for stability and for dating because when you diet you don't need to have so much things to cook you can it just chicken vegetables fruits your words this is not to cook and this is more important after but you know you know there are so much shows in america but cooking that i don't understand why american people don't want to cook and cooking is also something for enjoy yourself so i believe this is a time increasing secondly secondly in france for example the time for cooking is decreasing and what we insist for french people to do is the fact. that

they can buy at the supermarket the goods and they can just by putting it you know . everything you know and just. wait for the time that it cooks and doing. a cuisine of chef you can do that now switching gears a little bit you've been called the main antagonist of pierre de con and other french dietician whose diet is taking the world and russia in particular by storm i have a couple of friends who are on that diet and they actually manage to lose weight what is wrong with their kind dieting you know. we are told so much since about this. no my position is to tell people wanting to make this diet just to wear one europe or when you're of to hear what is negative in this diet six months after having done this you probably will get back to your although

your former weight and probably gaining more weight and secondly you didn't know you will not know ho to eat because it's so in front some people young people crying in front of the bill because when you eat just proteins it's an exclusive so it's not a natural diet just twitt and warn you're on your own after the for a period then people knows what the real problems of this diet to ration. overweight now the french nutrition watchdog answer pronouncing that name correctly criticized both the conduct of your diet for high sodium intake and what they believe is inefficient insufficient rather intake of vitamins and they also said that if. especially women were to follow your diet they they have

a possibility of being short on iron so as we all know died including you who have died are unlikely to work i mean this is a scientific fact but what they seem to be saying is that your diet and many other diets could actually harm people so what do you think about that first everyday it . deficiences it. and it is included in the diet and. a lot of food being normal food being content deficiences but following this report i decided to change to put some corrections and. they were all right so they're asked me to do it and. i know that. you can even suit you for libel after you criticized.

his methods have you settled here differences since then have you had a i don't know a conversation a personal one i want this is not my enemy. i am a doctor so this is a medical department and. to tell what i think. me. obviously. the judge decided that i was right and. the war is finished now in my introduction i mentioned that the statistics on new year's resolutions and on diets are very very similar and i think that maybe because most of the new year's resolutions concern dieting people promise themselves to start eating healthily after all of the next year and as i said nine out of ton usually fail what do you think is a secret ingredient to making or becoming obese one person who actually succeed.

being patient because when they decide to begin the diet after. new year old like this year you are supported by the fact that you have eaten too much but you are probably giving a few times after because you are you are going to forget and patience means that you have to take your time for learn the food and after this you can begin the diet so decide one day when you are beginning the diet prepare yourself prepare your grocery least prepare your kitchen and then you are able to to to to to become your diet and then to somebody and we can help you to be more committed because today thirty years after my beginning in this work i'm sure that commitment and meant are the two men the words to watch words to succeed mr cohen thank you

very much for your time and if you like the problem please join us again same place same time here in a while the pipe. drugs family sixteen percent of you imports came from illegal fishing. the european union is ironically taking fish from some of the poorest nations on earth so this is a very serious and very urgent problem that needs immediate international action. on the enter territorial waters they fish they load the fish on to the ships and leave. to day
