1.5 tons of food is how much the average person consumes per year. But food is no longer just nutrition; it now means identity, healing and self-determination. "DOK" accompanies people for whom food is not just food. ???? Subscribe to SRF Dok now on YouTube ???? https://www.youtube.com/srfdok?sub_co... The alarm clock rings at half past two. He gets up in the middle of the night to ensure that others eat healthily: the vegetable and fruit dealer Tiziano Marinello. The wholesale trade in vegetables and fruit takes place when the world is still asleep, because what is harvested during the day should reach the buyer as fresh as possible. There is a gold rush atmosphere in his home, says Tiziano Marinello, and the trend towards healthy eating is taking hold. For him as a dealer, healthy eating also means that he is working more and more with producers who are based within a few kilometers. With good reason: consumers want regional products. Rebecca Clopath is a radical regionalist. She only serves what the Alpine region has to offer. As a talented cook, she could have pursued an international career in cooking, but she chose her hometown of Lohn, a small mountain farming village in the canton of Graubünden. Her menu is called "food perception" and lasts several hours. And what guests are served on their plates has been prepared for days, weeks, and sometimes even months. She wants her guests to discover new things: hemp, resin or marmot sausage. More and more people are changing their diet, sometimes radically - and that is right, says bestselling author Bas Kast. He did it himself after his body gave him a clear, painful warning signal. His book "The Nutrition Compass" has been a hit for years and is synonymous with the success of countless other nutrition books that generate millions in sales. Evidently, more and more people understand healthy eating to mean a meat-free or vegan diet. Thomas and Sabina Sigrist have been vegan for three years because they find the production conditions in the meat and dairy industries disgusting. The fact that the two are strength athletes has not stopped them, quite the opposite. Thomas Sigrist, three-time Swiss karate champion, eats a lentil stew with great enjoyment. Eating habits are often paradoxical: on the one hand, eating is celebrated like never before, while on the other hand, "eating on the go" is booming, often mindless munching on the go. Never before have there been as many and as safe foods as today - and yet the uncertainty is enormous. The question "What should I eat?" has given way to the question "What am I allowed to eat?". Nutrition has literally grown out of control for society. Nutritionist Christine Brombach says that even experts like her can hardly keep track of everything. She therefore comes to the conclusion that many people simply create their world on their own plates and express their attitude: This is how I eat - this is who I am.
