Carrots and cupcakes: healthy eating made simple | Niki Bezzant | TEDxQueenstown

But the basics of healthy eating are simple: all we really need to know are six things about how to think about our food. Niki Bezzant is a nutrition and food writer and the founding editor, now editor-in-chief, of Healthy Food Guide magazine (New Zealand’s top-selling food magazine). She is a weekly columnist for the Herald on Sunday, regularly blogs at and is a regular contributor to TV and radio. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
