Waterstones Says

The respected scientist and author of Spoon Fed delivers an eye-opening account of the frauds and fallacies of the food and diet industries as he presents his own approach to nutrition.

Empowering and practical, Food for Life is nothing less than a new approach to how to eat - for our health and the health of the planet. Food is our greatest ally for good health, but the question of what to eat in the age of ultra-processed food has never seemed so complicated.

Drawing on cutting-edge research and personal insights, Professor Tim Spector offers clear answers in this definitive, easy-to-follow guide to the new science of eating well.
