The foods we feed our children and what we eat now will determine disease patterns in the future. Most of the chronic illnesses of today were either rare or unheard of just 100 years ago and still doesn't exist in many countries where people live on traditional diets. The scientific literature is now abundant with evidence showing how changes in lifestyle and diet not only reduce the chances of these chronic diseases but also, in many cases, reverse these conditions without the use of prescription drugs. Unless we change now the current generation of children will be the first to die at an earlier age than their parents. This colourfully illustrated book written in an easy to understand manner tells the story of what we should be eating and why and how we can all reach our optimal health.
