Food Isn't Medicine: Challenge Nutrib*llocks & Escape the Diet Trap by Joshua Wolrich
informative
fast-paced
3.5
An accessible beginners guide to challenging health and nutritional misinformation. Broken into breif chuncks, the book addresses a selection of the most prevalent diet culture fads in a way that attempts to make the science easy to understand. I enjoyed the strength of Wolrich's voice, and the welcoming and non-judgemental tone of the book.
I would have liked to see more in-depth conversation about the science and nutrition, but but as encouragement for people beginning to challenge their own relationships with food, it's a good introduction which provides plenty of resources for further investigation.
