We know that our diet influences our health. But is there more to
the adage "you are what you eat?" Connecting the dots from
agriculture to medicine, geologist David R. Montgomery and
biologist Anne Bikle argue we overlook the other half of a healthy
diet: how we grow our food. Journeying from research labs to the
fields of regenerative farmers, they uncover scientific and
historical evidence for how farming practices-so often disruptive
to microbial partnerships-influence soil health and shape the types
and amounts of health-promoting minerals, fats and phytochemicals
in our crops, meat and dairy-and thus ourselves. Understanding
these connections has profound implications for what we eat and how
we grow it, now and in the future. A capstone work from lauded
authors, What Your Food Ate is a story both sobering and inspiring:
what's good for the soil is good for us, too.
