Rows of fresh vegetables and fruits at Whole Foods Market. The show opens at Whole Foods with the nutritionist and host Su-Mei Yu. It seems like there is a new food trend popping up everyday (gluten-free, paleo, vegan, raw, low carb, high carb, protein, etc) and it’s tough for people to know what the best way to eat is.

"Food Trends" - We'll discuss today's various food trends/diets with a nutritionist to try to shed light on what the right, or wrong, ways we should eat are. It seems like there is a new food trend popping up everyday (gluten-free, paleo, vegan, raw, low carb, high carb, protein, etc.) and it's tough for people to know what the best way to eat is. We'll try to find out if there is a "best" practice and explore some of these trends i.e. juicing at Beaming, a local juice bar, and True Food Kitchen to learn about their philosophies and offerings as well.

We'll finish up at The Sporting Club with Susan Sange, a fitness trainer, to round out the discussion by emphasizing that regardless of how healthy you eat, exercise is key to ensuring overall wellness.
