An eye-opening investigation into the science, economics, history and
production of ultra-processed food.
It's not you, it's the food.
We have entered a new 'age of eating' where most of our calories come
from an entirely novel set of substances called Ultra-Processed Food,
food which is industrially processed and designed and marketed to be
addictive. But do we really know what it's doing to our bodies?
Join Chris in his travels through the world of food science and a UPF
diet to discover what's really going on. Find out why exercise and
willpower can't save us, and what UPF is really doing to our bodies,
our health, our weight, and the planet (hint: nothing good).
For too long we've been told we just need to make different choices,
when really we're living in a food environment that makes it nigh-on
impossible. So this is a book about our rights. The right to know what
we eat and what it does to our bodies and the right to good, affordable
food.
Join actress, activist, and New York Times bestselling author Pamela
Anderson for a deeply personal culinary journey that harmonizes style,
compassion, and the pleasures of plant-based cooking
In a career spanning fame and activism, Pamela Anderson has ventured
from a humble upbringing to the forefront of Hollywood-and has always
been a passionate cook and gardener. Now, she invites you into her
kitchen to share 80 delicious recipes that nourish the soul.
This cookbook began as a box of recipe cards: a housewarming gift for
her sons inspired by homegrown traditions and world travel. It grew to
become her gift to you, showing how romantic, comforting, and indulgent
it can be to cook only with vegetables.
At Pamela's down-to-earth fairy kingdom on Vancouver Island, you'll
join her on the dock for chicory dandelion coffee and whipped cranberry
porridge, for picnics in the forest with a green goddess mason jar
salad and tomato galette, and at the dinner table for her
anti-inflammatory lentil soup, minty pea-potato pierogis, and more.
She also shares her love affair with bread, from maple-glazed cinnamon
rolls to rustic sourdough loaves and fougasse dipped in herby pistou,
alongside insights into life, love, entertaining guests, and preserving
nature's bounty.
