A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

--

Is a vegan diet healthier? Should I try going low-carb? Is it always a bad idea to skip a meal? Are superfoods all they're cracked up to be? Is fat still bad for you? Can I eat to improve my chances of conceiving?

Science of Nutrition cuts through the noise of conflicting diet advice with clear answers backed up by the very latest research.

Recognising that there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to nutrition, this ground-breaking book has the answers to all your food-related questions, covering every conceivable topic - from gut bacteria to weight management, to heart health and immune support, to vegan diets and intermittent fasting, and everything in between.

With an accessible Q&A approach and informative graphics, this nutrition book will debunk popular food myths and diets, redefine nutrition in the modern world, and enable you to make informed decisions that are best suited to you, about what, when, and how to eat.

The book's easily digestible and evidence-based advice empowers you to explore the benefits and importance of nutrition, alongside the downright misleading when it comes to the world of food and diet, and to equip yourself with the knowledge and confidence to assess and enhance your approach to nutrition.

Really great information
5 Stars
Really great information
Loved that she simplified the science behind nutrition. It’s such great information and addresses the questions I’ve been asking for a long time. All the information is backed by research and not what’s “in” right now. Great reference book!

Rhiannon, seriously thank you for writing this book. Everyone should read this, your book should be part of the school curriculum. It's easy to read and understand for non-professionals (and non-native speakers such as myself).

This an excellent book on food and nutrition.it is set out in short easy to understand articles that are well written and added by superb, graphics. I gave bought many books on this subject but most othem are long winded and full of jargon. This book is not written like a novel, it is easy to read and most importantly it is easy to put down and then pickup and carry on later. It covers a variety of food and health topics in detail , I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to know more about food an nutrition.

It was a very very good read. It was great to understand the fundamentals of food and nutrition. I think I loved how descriptive it was, it also covered the misconceptions about foods and food habits. It is a very amazing book, everyone must read it. You would know how to eat better afterwards and even while reading this book. “You would know yourself better when you read this book” is the best thing that I can say about this book.
