The Omega-3 fatty acid has been called “the miracle molecules” a compound that supposedly heals our hearts and builds our brains. Today these famous molecules fuel a $15 billion
industry and omega-3 supplements are today one of the world’s most popular nonprescription medications. But what if we’ve got it wrong?
What if the omega-3 is just one part of a much bigger nutritional story the sea is trying to tell us? In this talk bestselling author Paul Greenberg seeks to establish an “omega principle” a
way of eating that balances land and sea and brings humans in balance with their environment. Paul Greenberg del New York Times è autore dei best seller “Four Fish”, “American Catch” e “The Omega Principle”.
Collaboratore assiduo del New York Times e di molte altre pubblicazioni, Greenberg si è aggiudicato il “James Beard Award”
per la scrittura e la letteratura; è membro di PEW Association per la conservazione delle specie marine e scrittore ospite al Safina Center.
Il suo libro “Four Fish” è edito in Italia da Slow Food. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
