Condition: Like New
In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto, Michael Pollan calls the western diet the American Paradox: the more we worry about nutrition, the less healthy we seem to become. In Defense of Food, Pollan proposes a new (and very old) answer to the question of what we should eat. It comes down to seven simple but liberating words: "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." Pollan’s bracing and eloquent manifesto shows us how we can start making thoughtful food choices that will enrich our lives, enlarge our sense of what it means to be healthy, and bring pleasure back to eating.
