Rich Food Poor Food: Your Grocery Purchasing System (2000) - Plot & Excerpts
Filled with examples of foods to eat and avoid, as well as actions to take to both eat healthier and be more attuned to the world of food as it really is.It does rely on the use of fear to make it's arguments a bit too much for my taste, and as such I feel I didn't learn as much as I could have. I spent time questioning whether facts were being manipulated towards a bias, despite "knowing" better.Still, I recommend this book for anyone wishing to be more mindful about what they eat and put into their bodies. I personally know Mira and Jayson and they are truly as enthusiastic and as REAL in person as they are in this book. Whether it's buying their meat from a local butcher, or drinking whole milk in their organic coffee...they practice what they preach and are INSANELY passionate and knowlegable on the topics they discuss!The book is written just as they speak and is very easy to understand! They tell the truth, discuss real issues with the chemicals in our food. It provides real examples and is just really easy to understand!Whether you're paleo, vegan, vegetarian, or simply eat "normal"...consider this the Bible of all nutrition books!
