Critics Review
“Each of us has a unique relationship with food. And beyond the simple consideration of fats, carbs, protein and micronutrients like vitamins and minerals, food serves as a powerful source of information for our bodies. Food Without Fear explores how our individual uniqueness plays into how we respond to the information that our food choices purvey. And the dichotomy between “good” and “bad” foods is explored through the lenses of both leading edge science as well as our food-related responses. Both these data sets empower the reader with tools to optimize food choices and pave the way for a healthier life.“–David Perlmutter, MD, Fellow, American College of Nutrition, author, #1 New York Times bestseller Grain Brain and Brain Wash
