Let this guide be your very own friendly nutritionist, on hand to
debunk common food myths and give you the answers to those pressing
health questions with easy-to-swallow information. Is red wine good
for your heart? Will caffeine raise your blood pressure? How Food
Works gives you answers to these and several more questions by
investigating claims surrounding a variety of foods and examining
them from a biological standpoint. Discover nutritional facts about
the food you eat, learn the benefits of superfoods and
antioxidants, and go behind-the-scenes of modern food production.
Packed with infographics and colourful images, the book delves into
the science behind ways of eating including gluten-free and
veganism, as well as the benefits of different diets from around
the world. Turn the pages to understand why food intolerances
occur, what actually makes food organic, how important sell-by
dates really are, and how much salt you should really be eating.
Readers will also learn about the social and economic implications
of food choices, such as eating disorders and fair-trade
businesses. Indispensable and accessible to young and old, How Food
Works is the perfect health and dietary companion.
