Eat This Not That  Eat This, Not That is a highly graphic, simply laid out guide to every popular restaurant as well as most grocery aisles. With easy to see photos you get an easy to understand summary of what to avoid and what to go towards in order to eat healthily. Genocide! Book Review  Genocide, a book about eating healthy by avoiding sugar, has a subtitle of "how your doctorīs dietary ignorance will kill you!!!!" That quadruple exclamation point gives you an indication of how this book will read. In Defense of Food  Michael Pollan wrote In Defense of Food to encourage people to eat more natural foods, home cooked, out of ingredients they know. On one hand I agree completely with this message. On the other hand, I disagree with some of the commentary he provides along the way. Nutrition at your Fingertips  Nutrition at your Fingertips is a dense reference book full of a variety of details. Just what is a carb? What are fats and sugars? The book goes step by step through explaining the details, as if you were taking a serious course on nutrition.
