Program: Should you be avoiding nightshades?
Tegan Taylor: So, Norman, I just finished eating my lunch.
Norman Swan: What did you have?
Tegan Taylor: I had a chili bean thing with tomatoes and corn chips. It was delicious.
Norman Swan: Sounds good.
Tegan Taylor: It was, it was very good. But the thing about that particular meal, and the tomatoes in particular, is that I feel like tomatoes are so ubiquitous in so many cuisines around the world, and every now and again I think about the fact that they are native to the Americas and so were never found outside of those two continents until the 1500s.
Norman Swan: Yep. So we talk about the 'ting!' Mediterranean diet.
[Bell rings]
Thank you. The Mediterranean diet did not have tomatoes in it for most of its life.
Tegan Taylor: Yeah, and all of the other related foods that we think of as just being staples among European cuisines, potatoes, and then also, like I was saying before, chilies and thing

Program: The Articulate Ill
Norman Swan: Hello. This week on Ockham's Razor, the lessons to be learned from sick doctors and sick philosophers.
Professor Miles Little argues that the Articulate Ill can teach the so-called caring professions and doctors in particular, many lessons about becoming more human, and recognising the importance of the person's own story, his or her narrative. Because healing, true healing, is a lot more than getting rid of objective disease.
Miles Little is a surgeon who defies the stereotyped image of his specialty. He heads the Centre for Values, Ethics and the Law at the University of Sydney.
Miles Little: We doctors are accustomed to take what we call 'the medical history'. Our notes and summaries make prosaic reading.
