The Smith Family Discuss Eating Habits On “Red Table Talk”

Will and Jada Smith gathered the entire Smith family to stage an “intervention” after son Jaden began skipping meals. This came in the latest episode of Red Table Talk, the weekly chat show hosted by the family on Facebook Watch.

 

During a wide-ranging conversation about food and eating habits, Will Smith admitted to “[eating] food like an addict” and recently getting to his heaviest weight ever while relaxing on holiday. According to Will Smith, he weighed more than he had ever weighed in his entire adult life!

Will Smith opened up about how he was a “grazer” and took to food whenever he was bored. Jada responded to this by saying she and Jaden were completely different in that regard. Both mother and son find constantly eating “uncomfortable.”

 

The pair then said that they had to intervene after their son Jaden Smith changed to a vegan diet. Also, he began eating meals as little as once a day and losing a lot of weight over a short period of time.

They claimed Jaden Smith wasn’t “getting the nutrients” and was looking grey and “wasting away” as a result. “We realised he wasn’t getting enough protein,” Jada Pinkett-Smith said. “He just looked drained. He looked depleted.”

 

Jaden Smith said he has since switched again to being a vegetarian. “I’ll go vegan for a week or so,” he said, “but for the past year I’ve been vegetarian.”

The Smith family proceeded to invite a professional nutritionist to the table to talk to them about their relationship with food. The nutritionist discussed emotional eating and how stress affects eating habits and general wellbeing. The talk was a pretty enlightening one. Maybe you could learn a thing or two.
