Recensioni

If you eat, this book is essential reading.
It is a fast, easy read with quite a few startling facts and insights.
The biggest take-away is the nutritional mismatch between the food we eat, and what our brain requires to function optimally.
Key chapters: chapter 7, 8; summary: chapter 11

This is a fascinating look at food production in this country since the 1950s and how “natural” and artificial flavors play a role in our shared agricultural history. These added flavors are tricking our brains into eating foods with poor nutritional values & disappointing blandness. Engagingly written and eye-opening!

This book has a nice balance between our perception of foods such as in taste and other senses with the science behind food genetics and our physiologic response to food. I was surprised to learn about the "dilution effect" and inborn nutritional wisdom." And there's so much yet to learn. I now have an appreciation for "heirloom tomatoes."
