The Food Revolution by Sir Peter Bazalgette

In 1989 a MORI poll asked 2000 people some basic questions about food and nutrition. On average 55% got the answers wrong and 16% couldn't answer at all. This book assesses current scientific evidence to offer a view of the narrowness of most people's diet. Heart attacks, cancer, obesity, diabetes and bowel disease are major health problems facing western countries, and often they are diet-related. The book suggests how a few minor changes in diet can revolutionize people's health. The topics include an explanation of how dietary needs vary according to age, methods of weight control, shopping, cooking methods, family nutrition, food research aimed at preventing cancer and an A-Z directory of nutrition and food safety. Dr Tom Sanders has published more than 100 academic articles and books on nutrition and is a frequent broadcaster. Peter Bazalgette devised and produced BBC2's "Food and Drink" programme.
