The Eating Handbook
Donation protected
Welcome to The Eating Handbook GoFundMe site!
The Eating Handbook is a team of physicans and comedians helping people eat healthier through Facebook and YouTube.
Why?
+86-million Americans are pre-diabetic, and 1-in-3 will develop cardiovascular-related disease.
+Eat a "gram", drink an "ounce"... doesn't mean much to most of us.
+Cookbooks don't get it that we're hungry now!
What are the videos about?
Why is this food "good" for you...or not? In less than 4-min, we describe the basic science of what you eat and how those molecues behave in your body. Not just "eat more, eat less!" but why.
How good it is? We avoid media hype, pseudoscience and overstatements. We talk about mainstream guidelines and the rationales behind them.
What do I do about it? Mini-steps to improve your diet. We keep it simple and practical to improve your daily choices, no matter how busy you are.
Who are your videos for?
This project was inspired by our patients who live in food deserts (low-income neighborhoods, cross-country truck drivers, homeless), work multiple jobs, or who were not offered nutrition in school but now are navigating diet-related disease--scenarios that are really tough.
The original intent of the project was to help medical students and physicians improve how we discuss food with patients. As the project has grown, we have started making videos accessible to patients directly.
The Videos:
Finished and Available Online:
Is Fat Bad?
What Kind of Milk Should You Be Drinking?

Potential Future Topics:
Fiber and gut health
Omega-3s and your heart
Salt and blood pressure
Iron and anemia
Fundraising:
Nutrition information should be accessible to everyone--everyone deserves to be healthy. And so, these videos will be available to the public for free. But script-writing, illustration, and animation are expensive processes. We cannot do this without your continued support and there is no donation too small.
