Product Description:
A groundbreaking book that separates fact from fiction in the ever-changing world of food and health, with a foreword by Dr. Mehmet Oz.
Not a week passes without one food-related issue or another making the headlines. We worry about additives, preservatives, eating disorders, hygiene, heart disease, cancer, and calories (just to name a few), so it's little wonder that we are utterly confused! In an attempt to make sense of the bewildering and often contradictory information on what to eat and why, the Discovery Health Channel® will debut The Truth About Food in September 2007. This major five-part series is hosted by Dr. Mehmet Oz, the bestselling author of YOU: The Owner’s Manual. This companion book to the series synthesizes years of research and groundbreaking experiments by leading research centers, hospitals, and doctors, carried out especially for the series. This is the first book to finally assemble some of the most important findings and then put them through rigorous testing.
FIND OUT IF:
Can calcium help you absorb fewer calories? Are there foods that increase male fertility?Are tomatoes are nature’s sunscreen?
The Truth About Food is arranged into six main sections:
1) How to Stay Young and Beautiful
2) How to Be Sexy and Fertile
3) How to Look Good and Stay Slim
4) How to Perform at Your Peak
5) How to Stay Healthy
6) How to Raise Healthy Kids
User-friendly and engaging, The Truth About Food features over 60 illustrations, clear explanations of scientific terms, helpful tips, chapter summaries, and much more. This is the one food book you won’t want to be without!

Trendy conclusions and really rinky-dink experiments. The book went to press before some of the results of the experiments were complete! How weird is that? I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone serious about improving their health. There are many books that are much better.

This is a fantastic book. Not merely a laundry list of good for you food. It tells you why and makes it very interesting.

This book was made into a Discovery Health 6-part series narrated by Mehmet Oz. I only caught two hours of it. It piqued my interest and when I saw there was a book, I had to have it. Even though I don't work as a scientist, I think like one. I have a biology degree from college and I don't just take someone's word on something -- I have to have actual, tangible, written-down proof. The thing I love about this book is the fact that they did actual experiments with "control" groups and groups ... Read More

This book is the reader's version of a 6-part TV special on, I believe, the Discovery Channel, each part of the volume reflecting the content of one of those 6 shows. In Jill Fullerton-Smith's words, the book (page 8) "reveals the real science of food using the latest research from leaders in the field of nutrition, alongside original and sometimes groundbreaking experiments that we carried out especially for the series."
The content of the book begins, appropriately enough, with a quick ... Read More

The book "The Truth about Food" is the book presenting the material that could be seen on the TV-series of the same name that was run by the BBC. While the series was mildly funny and informative to some degree, it was "reality TV" with hidden camera's monitoring children's and adults' eating patterns. OK, I don't like reality TV and will now review the book.
Many of us have found ourselves in this situation. You want to live longer, improve your fitness level, improve in your particular ... Read More
