Lecture 21 - The Morphing of the Modern Diet
(Guest Lecture by Brian Wansink) Dr. Brian Wansink explores the topic of how people can move from mindless eating to healthier eating. He identifies five myths that contribute to overeating, and suggests how his research on eating cues provides potential ways to intervene against people's mindless eating patterns. He then describes the future direction of his research.
