Food Voice : The identity you never knew you had | TEDxNTU

Presented by Asst Prof Paul Victor Patinadan

“”We all eat. It’s an indisputable natural fact, fueling our bodies with calories for energy and nutritional benefit. But here’s the intriguing question… How many of you truly LOVE to eat?””

In this captivating talk, Dr. Paul Victor Patinadan delves into the fascinating realm of Food Voices —a unique connection with food that begins from the day we are born and persists even after we die. Drawing from his extensive experience in Thanatology (i.e., study of death) – focused psychosocial interventions and therapies, Paul sheds light on profound realizations he has had of the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of our eating habits in his interactions with individuals at the end of life or those grieving the loss of a loved one.
