“One of the superfoods which people don’t discuss that much any more, is joy, laughter, happiness, friendship, because it’s so easy to obsess over food because you can control it, but these are the variables like connection and nature, and these other things that sometimes we don’t don’t give as much weight to, but I think they’re every bit as important.” 14:21
