What constitutes a healthy diet?
Mainstream media and advertisers would like you to think that the answer to
this question is complicated and controversial. But science, fortunately, tells
us otherwise.
A Conversation about Healthy Eating brings together all the relevant science about healthy eating in one place, and it’s exactly that – a
conversation. This in-depth analysis leads to the simple conclusion that the
specifics of what you eat don’t actually matter; staying lean and healthy
simply requires avoiding the overconsumption of processed foods. While that is,
of course, easier said than done, science also provides clear recommendations
for how you can adapt your environment and lifestyle to make it possible.
Rather than simply presenting you
with the principles of healthy eating, this book will help you to develop a
comprehensive understanding of the science behind the principles. This
understanding will allow you to ignore the noise in the media and to move forward
with a healthy diet and lifestyle that work for you.
