Beating the Food Giants

Biochemical Individuality
Robert Williams PhD

Dr. Williams says that "while the same physical mechanisms and the same metabolic processes are operating in all human bodies, the structures are sufficiently diverse that the sum total of all the reactions taking place in one individual's body may be very different from those taking place in the body of another individual of the same age, sex and body size." His observations led Dr. Williams to theorize that each individual also had unique nutritional needs, and that determining and meeting those needs would help combat disease. Although written in academic language, Biochemical Individuality is of interest to all readers who recognize that "there is no such thing as a truly normal individual" and that people have "unique biochemical profiles based upon their own genetic structure, nutrition and environment."

Dangerous Grains
James Braly,MD and Ron Hoggan, MA

This book turns the U.S. Food Guide Pyramid upside down by exposing the myriad of health risks posed by gluten grains (wheat, rye, barley, spelt, kamut, and triticale). The authors, leading experts in the field of food allergies, and celiac disease, present compelling evidence that our grain-centred diet is to blame for a host of chronic illnesses. Largely misunderstood and frequently misdiagnosed, these disorders can be prevented and reversed by the useful program outlined in this important book.

Fast Food Nation
Eric Schlosser

On any given day, one out of four Americans opts for a quick and cheap meal at a fast-food restaurant, without giving either its speed or its thriftiness a second thought. But the industry's drive for consolidation, homogenization, and speed has radically transformed America's diet, landscape, economy and workforce, often in insidiously dangerous ways. Schlosser wants you to know why those French fries taste so good (with a visit to the world's largest flavor company) and "what really lurks between those sesame-seed buns."
