From hunting and gathering to GMOs and ultraprocessed foods, this expansive tour of human history rewrites the story of our…
species—and points the way to a better future.The history of Homo sapiens is usually told as a story of technology or economics. But there is a more fundamental driver: food. How we hunted and gathered explains our emergence as a new species and our earliest technology; our first food systems, from fire to agriculture, tell where we settled and how civilizations expanded. The quest for food for growing populations drove exploration, colonialism, slavery, even capitalism. A century ago, food was industrialized. Since then, new styles of agriculture and food production have written a new chapter of human history, one that&’s driving both climate change and global health crises. Best-selling food authority Mark Bittman offers a panoramic view of the story and explains how we can rescue ourselves from the modern wrong turn.

riempitivo, non ci sono parole sprecate. La relazione è facile da leggere come ascoltare il discorso dell'autore durante una conferenza. Pensa Keto Pensa OMAD Pensa al digiuno intermittente Pensa semplice Questo libro è la guida passo passo di Richard Lee, mentre scendeva da 116Kg a 89kg. Più di un terzo della popolazione soffre di problemi di peso. Alcuni di conseguenza sono malati. Stavo andando ad un appuntamento con la morte. Non sapevo che il mio fegato stava collassando, la mia pressione sanguigna era così alta che ho dovuto rinunciare alla palestra, i miei livelli di insulina erano sempre alti, e il mio cuore lavorava il doppio solo per farmi respirare. Questo è stato un bello shock. Vedete, questo dovrebbe accadere ad altre persone. Non a me. Sono il tizio che ha sollevato pesi tre volte a settimana, ha insegnato karate e guidato un camion. Sono solo un ragazzo normale, che vive una vita normale. La cultura del bere in Nuova Zelanda è dilagante e ne ho approfittato. Il fast food è ottimo. Fish 'n' Chips, Triplo Cheeseburgers, dolcetti alla crema, barrette di cioccolato, patatine fritte, gelato, patatine di mais, pasticci di carne, torte di mele, cheesecake ai mirtilli ecc.. Tutto ha un ottimo sapore ed è difficile capire quando fermarsi. È come se la parte che governa l’appetito del nostro cervello fosse rotta o confusa. Occorre correggerlo. Ed è un gioco da ragazzi. Niente stress, niente conteggio delle calorie, goditi i carboidrati. Questo sistema, se seguito, non ti deluderà. È facile. È semplice. Funziona. Questa relazione illustra il mio percorso e le cose che ho scoperto man mano quando sono diventato un soggetto di prova per la mia ricerca. Lungo la strada, ho imparato molte verità e ho scoperto anche molte falsità.

The most effective and achievable guide to intermittent fasting, outlining a unique plan that merges the science behind fasting with…
a holistic approach to eating, from the bestselling author of Ketotarian and The Inflammation Spectrum. &“Intuitive Fasting is Will&’s clear four-week program designed to set you up to feel your best for all the other weeks to come. . . . It&’s full of what he&’s learned about reducing inflammation, restoring balance, recharging metabolism, and resetting gut health.&”—Gwyneth Paltrow, from the forewordFor some, the idea of fasting by eating only one or two meals a day still sounds like an extreme and overly restrictive dieting tactic. But many of us already feel like victims to our daily eating schedule: three meals a day, plus snacks. Eat every few hours, we are told by the experts. This fixed eating schedule has become the norm. The truth is, this is an artificially constructed schedule that does not reflect our bodies&’ natural eating schedule. In fact, eating three meals every day can cause metabolic inflexibility, which can easily lead to inflammation, weight gain, fatigue, and chronic health problems. For millions of years, our bodies have actually functioned best with periodic times of fasting. With his fresh new approach to fasting, bestselling author and functional medicine expert Dr. Will Cole gives us the ability to take control of our hunger, making intermittent fasting intuitive. You&’ll get in touch with your instinctive eating patterns and become healthier and more mindful about how and when you eat. When your body is out of balance, it can be very difficult to discern what it needs to build vibrant wellness. Intuitive Fasting will show you how to find metabolic flexibility—and once you&’ve reached metabolic flexibility, you can intuitively trust your body to function at optimal capacity, whether you&’ve eaten six minutes ago or six hours ago. With his 4-Week Flexible Fasting Plan, Dr. Cole will guide you through varying intermittent fasting windows, with each week of the plan tailored to focus on a different aspect of your health. He illustrates the most effective ways to fast and eat to amplify the health benefits of intermittent fasting, balancing rest and repair with clean, nutrient-dense, delicious foods. By the end of the four weeks, you will have all the tools necessary to Reset your body, Recharge your metabolism, Renew your cells, and Rebalance your hormones. Along with more than sixty-five recipes, you&’ll also find a maintenance plan, so you can adapt fasting and feeding windows to work sustainably with your lifestyle.

Twelve-time New York Times bestselling author Mark Hyman, MD, presents his unique Pegan diet—including meal plans, recipes, and shopping lists.…
For decades, the diet wars have pitted advocates for the low-carb, high-fat paleo diet against advocates of the exclusively plant-based vegan diet and dozens of other diets leaving most of us bewildered and confused. For those of us on the sidelines, trying to figure out which approach is best has been nearly impossible—both extreme diets have unique benefits and drawbacks. But how can it be, we've asked desperately, that our only options are bacon and butter three times a day or endless kale salads? How do we eat to reverse disease, optimal health, longevity and performance. How do we eat to reverse climate change? There must be a better way! Fortunately, there is. With The Pegan Diet's food-is-medicine approach, Mark Hyman explains how to take the best aspects of the paleo diet (good fats, limited refined carbs, limited sugar) and combine them with the vegan diet (lots and lots of fresh, healthy veggies) to create a delicious diet that is not only good for your brain and your body, but also good for the planet. Featuring thirty recipes and plenty of infographics illustrating the concepts, The Pegan Diet offers a balanced and easy-to-follow approach to eating that will help you get, and stay, fit, healthy, focused, and happy—for life.

For readers of Plague of Corruption, Thomas S. Cowan, MD, and Sally Fallon Morell ask the question: are there really such…
things as "viruses"? Or are electro smog, toxic living conditions, and 5G actually to blame for COVID-19? The official explanation for today&’s COVID-19 pandemic is a &“dangerous, infectious virus.&” This is the rationale for isolating a large portion of the world&’s population in their homes so as to curb its spread. From face masks to social distancing, from antivirals to vaccines, these measures are predicated on the assumption that tiny viruses can cause serious illness and that such illness is transmissible person-to-person. It was Louis Pasteur who convinced a skeptical medical community that contagious germs cause disease; his &“germ theory&” now serves as the official explanation for most illness. However, in his private diaries he states unequivocally that in his entire career he was not once able to transfer disease with a pure culture of bacteria (he obviously wasn&’t able to purify viruses at that time). He admitted that the whole effort to prove contagion was a failure, leading to his famous death bed confession that &“the germ is nothing, the terrain is everything.&” While the incidence and death statistics for COVID-19 may not be reliable, there is no question that many people have taken sick with a strange new disease—with odd symptoms like gasping for air and &“fizzing&” feelings—and hundreds of thousands have died. Many suspect that the cause is not viral but a kind of pollution unique to the modern age—electromagnetic pollution. Today we are surrounded by a jangle of overlapping and jarring frequencies—from power lines to the fridge to the cell phone. It started with the telegraph and progressed to worldwide electricity, then radar, then satellites that disrupt the ionosphere, then ubiquitous Wi-Fi. The most recent addition to this disturbing racket is fifth generation wireless—5G. In The Truth About Contagion: Exploring Theories of How Disease Spreads, bestselling authors Thomas S. Cowan, MD, and Sally Fallon Morell explore the true causes of COVID-19. On September 26, 2019, 5G wireless was turned on in Wuhan, China (and officially launched November 1) with a grid of about ten thousand antennas—more antennas than exist in the whole United States, all concentrated in one city. A spike in cases occurred on February 13, the same week that Wuhan turned on its 5G network for monitoring traffic. Illness has subsequently followed 5G installation in all the major cities in America. Since the dawn of the human race, medicine men and physicians have wondered about the cause of disease, especially what we call &“contagions,&” numerous people ill with similar symptoms, all at the same time. Does humankind suffer these outbreaks at the hands of an angry god or evil spirit? A disturbance in the atmosphere, a miasma? Do we catch the illness from others or from some outside influence? As the restriction of our freedoms continues, more and more people are wondering whether this is true. Could a packet of RNA fragments, which cannot even be defined as a living organism, cause such havoc? Perhaps something else is involved—something that has upset the balance of nature and made us more susceptible to disease? Perhaps there is no &“coronavirus&” at all; perhaps, as Pasteur said, &“the germ is nothing, the terrain is everything.&”

En este libro, Emily y Michael iluminan hábilmente la naturaleza del azúcar en nuestro mundo actual, y qué papel debe desempeñar en la dieta de un niño. Es una lectura esencial para padres, educadores y comensales.»Alice Waters, chef, autora y fundadora de Edible Schoolyard

help you enjoy food and lose weight without guilt or shame.There are so many diets out there, but what if you want to eat well and lose weight without dieting, counting, or restricting? What if you want to love your body, not punish it? Registered dietitian Abby Langer is here to help. In her first-ever book, Abby takes on our obsession with being thin and the diets that are sucking the life, sometimes literally, out of us. For the past twenty years, she has worked with clients from all walks of life to free them from restrictive diets and help them heal their relationship with food. Because all food is good for us—yes, even carbs and fats. All diets are bad. Diets are like Band-Aids for what&’s really bothering us: Although we might lose weight, they prey on our insecurities, rob us of time and money, and often leave us with the same negative views of food and our bodies that we&’ve always had. When the weight comes back, we still haven&’t solved the real issues behind our eating habits—our &“why.&” This book is different. Chapter by chapter, Abby helps readers uncover the &“why&” behind their desire to lose weight and their relationship with food, and make lasting, meaningful change to the way they see food, nutrition, themselves, and the world around them. In this book, you&’ll learn how guilt and shame affect your food choices, how fullness and satisfaction aren&’t the same feeling, why it&’s important to quiet your &“diet voice&” and enjoy food, and what the best way to eat is according to science. Empowering, inclusive, smart, and a must-have, Good Food, Bad Diet will give you the tools to reject diets, repair your relationship with food, and lose weight so you can move on with your life.
