This week, we will hear from Dr. Sharan Rai and Dr. Shilpa Bhupathiraju, co-authors of the article “A South Asian Mediterranean-style diet is associated with favorable adiposity measures and lower diabetes risk.” In this episode, we will discuss exactly what this diet is and how it can prevent and treat diet-related chronic conditions. We also discuss the role of cultural foods, something fundamental to Yumlish’s mission, how these foods and the surrounding community can illuminate our normalized understanding of diet, and how the knowledge could help assist in the journey to a sustainable, healthy lifestyle.

Dr. Bhupathiraju is an Assistant Professor in Medicine and Nutrition at Harvard Medical School and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and an Associate Epidemiologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Boston. Her research focuses on dietary and lifestyle predictors of cardiometabolic disease.
