“You are what you eat” -to what extent is this true
Jean Brillat-Savarin, in his book "Physiology of Taste", instigated the knowledge of food as an intrinsic factor to life when asserted "Tell me what you eat and I will tell you who you are". Indeed, food plays a major role in the physical and mental formation of human beings, in such a way that the notion of having a healthier life requires a change in eating patterns. However, the awareness value generated by the sentence is not understood by everyone, since we still prefer to believe in sensationalist advertisements and indulge in the consumption of industrialized and toxic products.
