About The Future Of Nutrition: An Insider's Look At The

Product Description 2020 Foreword Indie Award Winner in the “Health” Category From the coauthor of The China Study and author of the New York Times bestselling follow-up, Whole Despite extensive research and overwhelming public information on nutrition and health science, we are more confused than ever—about the foods we eat, what good nutrition looks like, and what it can do for our health. In The Future of Nutrition, T. Colin Campbell cuts through the noise with an in-depth analysis of our historical relationship to the food we eat, the source of our present information overload, and what our current path means for the future—both for individual health and society as a whole. In these pages, Campbell takes on the institution of nutrition itself, unpacking:     • Why the institutional emphasis on individual nutrients (instead of whole foods) as a means to explain nutrition has had catastrophic consequences    • How our reverence for "high quality" animal protein has distorted our understanding of cholesterol, saturated fat, unsaturated fat, environmental carcinogens, and more    • Why mainstream food and nutrient recommendations and public policy favor corporate interests over that of personal and planetary health     • How we can ensure that public nutrition literacy can prevent and treat personal illness more effectively and economically  The Future of Nutrition offers a fascinating deep-dive behind the curtain of the field of nutrition—with implications both for our health and for the practice of science itself. Review "Just finished this book and can't stop talking about it to whomever will listen to me. It is fantastic. Colin Campbell's latest masterpiece on whole food, plant-based (WFPB) nutrition is a must read for anybody interested in understanding health, cancer, and how a proven lifestyle has become so controversial. Campbell sets the tone for how WFPB can guide us toward optimal living." — David Feinberg, MD, head of Google Health "Dr. Campbell serves up a sweeping historical survey of the literature on diet and health, brilliantly exploring the institutional biases that have long confused consumers and subverted the science as to the power of evidence-based nutrition to prevent and treat disease. Couldn't put the book down!" — Michael Greger, MD, bestselling author of How Not to Die " The Future of Nutrition is Campbell's magnum opus and will leave you rethinking how you discuss healthy eating, what you hear about dietary guidelines, and what's in your next bite. This is a must-read for everyone who is serious about nutrition and wants a unique behind-the-scenes understanding of a foe-ridden field through the eyes of a pioneer." — William W. Li, MD, New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Disease and president and medical director of the Angiogenesis Foundation "Dr. Campbell, the pioneering researcher whose earlier published findings in  The China Study on the benefits of plant-based versus animal-based foods ‘fired the shot heard round the world,' does it again in  The Future of Nutrition. This book is a must-read for many reasons, the main one being that our health and our lives depend on us acting on the tipping point evidence that Dr. Campbell provides." — Ruth Heidrich, PhD, WFPB Ironman triathlete and author of A Race For Life and Senior Fitness "As a cellist, I know that true music is much more than the parts. An inexplicable magic occurs when there is harmony between the physical and spiritual. After reading this book, the truth of wholism and living at one with nature became much more than well documented science. Everything came together as a whole and made music. This book had a huge impact on me. I think it will change many lives for the better." — Daniel Domb, cello soloist with the New York Philharmonic, Boston Pops, Chicago Symphony, National Symphony, Cleveland Orchestra, and The Three Tenors, and recitalist at Carnegie Hall, Concertgebouw, and Wigmore Hall "Dr.
