Whole Foods/FacebookEver wonder how your doctor shops for nutritious food?Your doctor has probably told you to avoid certain foods and eat more of others. But do you ever wish you could just tag along on her next trip to the grocery store to see how she shops for nutritious food?

Michael Ruhlman, a chef and author, does just that in his book "Grocery: The Buying and Selling of Food in America."

Roxane B. Sukol, a preventive medicine specialist and the medical director of the Cleveland Clinic's Wellness Enterprise, takes Ruhlman through the aisles of her local grocery store to point out which foods she picks, which products she avoids, and which sections she spends the most time in at the market.
