Food Rules: An Eater's Manual by Michael Pollan

4.0

Easy, fast read, and the food rules were excellent, common sense rules that we all should follow.

The notes added into the manual were thought-provoking. Some interesting highlights I made:

People who get off the Western diet see dramatic improvements in their health.

There’s a lot of money in the Western diet. The more you process any food, the more profitable it becomes.

The healthcare industry makes more money treating chronic diseases (which account for three quarters of the $2 trillion plus we spend each year on health care in this country) than preventing them.
