Description - The Magic of Food by Michael T. Murray
In THE OMNIVORE'S DILEMMA, Michael Pollan showed us why it matters where our food comes from. In THE MAGIC OF FOOD, Dr. Michael T. Murray shows the reader why it matters what our food is. Over the years, there have been tremendous advances in our understanding of the wondrous healing power and health benefits of the bounty of foods now available to us. This book represents a compilation of information that the author has found particularly interesting, fascinating, and inspiring in his many years as a naturopath. Murray's goal is to ignite the same passion for healthful eating in the reader that he's enjoyed in his life, and he aims to do that by showing the nuts and bolts of how particular foods affect us--and how that matters to us in the long run. He'll show our diet has evolved--and what we've done right and wrong; what the world's healthiest diets are and how we can implement them into our lives; how we can expand our understanding of nutrients; and more. In addition, it's packed with recipes and helpful guidelines for better eating, making it practical and prescriptive as well as exploratory.
Though food and dietary prescriptions are increasing in popularity, we have only barely scratched the surface in the use of food as medicine. There is no question that is the future. In this book, the author hopes to inspire others to eat better and make considered choices about the food they eat, in an effort to better their health for a lifetime.
