No recent book has done a better job describing the dietary mess we have fallen in to and how far we are from the foods we should be eating that Pollan’s Omivore’s Dilemma. This book takes us on a journey through corn fields, into fast food restaurants, and through the economic consequences of the food we produce. A great and well crafted book.

Marion Nestle’s book, What to Eat offers clear advice for navigating through your grocery store and helping you to find foods that actually nourish your body instead of just fill you up.

Nina Planck’s book is a refreshing relief from so many books that deal with nutrition. The book is a fun read and gives real practical solutions to making the correct food choices.

This book takes us on a journey into the past, before agriculture, and before our diet was forever changed by carbohydrates. Schmid’s book shows us the link between what we eat and our health.

We assume that processed foods are not healthy for us, but we also assume that fresh foods such as produce and meats are better for us, Pawlick shows us that this may not be true.

This is a very dated book but still contains good information about how good food is the basis of good health.
