Theres a lot of health information out there online on what to eat for people from the USA and other areas of the world hoping to achieve their perfect body says a Pacific Islander Dietitian, but Polynesians should be mindful that they may need a diet more traditional with traditional recipes 💪. Hawaiian cooking has significantly advanced over the last 50 years being such a successful tourist destination and has a wide variety and mixture of Asia Pacific-Polynesian foods, and might be a great place to start if someone is looking to change things up.
"As a man from the Asia Pacific from Tafuna of Eastern Samoa (American Samoa) I've always been healthy but my body does feel lacking at times in winter in America, a place with a weather cycle very different from that in the islands. Gotta have the island food dipped in the coconut cream and that Ginger tea works wonders on blood pressure. Dont get lazy and buy the tea bags with ginger flavor and some Ginger seasoning, buy the Ginger Roots from the store, cut them in coins with boiled water, strain it, and add some sugar if you like. Thats the good stuff"
'I buy like pizza which tastes really good, Iam a Pizza and Bacon Burger lover but it's kinda like filling my body with the wrong gas'
'I've recently worked on a High Zinc Diet which happens to be all kinds of Seafood Meats...Fish, Crab legs, Shrimp, Lobster etc.. My body really needs things like Zincs and the Omegas in Seafoods, and also Potassium which is found in things like Taro, Bananas, Yams, Potatoes. It's really about putting the right things in my body for the long term, real health, meaning my body literally needs those foods for it to sustain my strength. If people are shaped by their environment and Samoans and Polynesians have been in the South Pacific for thousands and thousands of years, then of course, those foods are key for a healthy life in development and older ages'
There was something of a Polynesian health campaign in 2012 by Chris Vagai stating "Eat what your Ancestors ate" 👹, unfortunately the health campaign may have been contracted work and so it isn't found online very easily these days. The message was simply that what was great for island fathers and mothers, is good and essential for the next generations.
