Did you know that 62% of the food in our supermarkets is not only
processed but 'ultra-processed' (ingredients from other foods are
combined to make something 'new', often in colours that do not exist in
nature) and that data shows that by eating this kind of food over time
we are literally slowly poisoning ourselves?
In the hard-hitting, ground-breaking tradition of his NY Times
bestseller FAT CHANCE, which revealed the dangers of sugar, Dr Robert
Lustig persuasively presents a stark exposé of how our addiction to
processed foods (aided and abetted by the food industry, big ag, big
pharma, institutional medicine and the government) is behind the lethal
increase in major non-communicable diseases, including diabetes, heart
disease, fatty liver disease, cancer and dementia. We have come to
accept that these chronic diseases are simply part of the 'natural
ageing process', but Dr Lustig makes the case that this is simply not
true.
The solution on both a personal and societal level is a return to
unprocessed food and Dr Lustig offers a doable plan for us to heal and
restore our own health and wellbeing with real food, and in the process
boosting our immunity to viruses like Covid-19.
