Join the Food Revolution Summit and think about food revolution

I knew about this Summit from the Peak Work Performance Summit I was listening to. One of the interviewees was Ocean Robbins. I did not know who he is until finding out more about him.

 

 

I suppose many of us know the very famous ice cream shop, Baskin Robbins. One of the co-founders was Irv Robbins, and he is Ocean’s grandfather. Ocean’s father, John Robbins, the only son of Irv Robbins decided to walk away from Baskin Robbins and pursue for a healthier life style, better food and simpler life. John and Ocean Robbins founded The Food Revolution Network, as they would like to bring more awareness about the healthy food and also support people to have a healthy lifestyle.

 

This is the 6th annual food revolution summit, and it is from 29 April to 7 May 2017. There will be more than 24 World’s Top Food Experts sharing more information about healthy food. There will be topics about nutrition, how to live for a healthier and longer lives, how to eat to beat cancer, plant-powered health and much more.

 

I like to eat ice cream, and I still eat some junk food nowadays. I like to drink Coca-Cola, though I do not always drink as I know it is bad for health. I do visit McDonalds once in a while, though I know it is not healthy food. I also aware that I need to make a change. Though I do not think I have a very unhealthy lifestyle and eat bad food, I know it is not good enough. There are more I need to find out, to know and to learn how I can eat healthier, live better and also help others with this knowledge too. I watched a video by Ocean Robbins, he mentioned his dad decided to leave the ice cream world because another co-founder of Baskin Robbins, Burt Baskin who is also John’s uncle suddenly died because of heart attack. He was conscious about this and he did not want to live the unhealthy life like that, and he also did not want to produce something that would harm others’ life. Both my late grandparents had diabetes, and my dad has high blood pressure and cholesterol, and he did a surgery because of atherosclerosis. Because of my grandparents, I started to beware of my food intake, especially sugar intake, as I knew how suffering it could be if I have diabetes. I did not like to live or end my life like that.

 

Though I have been eating more vegetables and less sugar and salt, it is certainly not enough. There are still many knowledge I need to gain in order to eat well. I am interested to find out more about GMO, as Ocean Robbins mentioned that a lot in the interview, and also plant-powered health. Recently I also watched a video series about cancer, and found that some food are just great to prevent or cure cancer. It is our responsibility to eat well, and it is our job to teach our children to eat and live well too. As a mom, I would really like to offer this wonderful gift to my children – a better lifestyle.
