Clear and Informative Book on Nutrition

I’m a novice in nutrition and I find that the information is chunked small enough to be informative without being too much. It uses a great mix of imagery and text to help understand as well.

How rhitrition has concentrated so much information into an easy informative read is brilliant. Thank you

Amazing visuals! The graphics are perfect. This book makes so many concepts easier to understand and answers a lot of complex questions in simple formats. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in learning nutrition.

This book is amazing it explains everything easy to understand I highly recommend Thank you so much for this book.

Author is a celebrity nutritionist with no scientific backing. Her opinions in this book are based on cherry picked articles with no substantial scientific evidence.

For example, she states 80% of our immune system health is derived from our gut flora, and from there states our lymph node system is connected to our gut and lungs - aka implies our respiratory health is connected to our gut flora...

Aka Flower Child celebrity nutritionist, not scientific consensus.

This lovely and thoughtful book is a read that can teach us a broader view on a healthy lifestyle,. The Science of Nutrition should be taught from a young age to aid all humans on the importance of a healthy eating life style that transcends into a happier life. We all need to be active in our overall well being.
My husband and I are retired chefs and have always maintained high food standards and eating habits. In this world of quick food/quick life we are doing a dis service to ourselves.
Your book is wonderfully written for the lay person and full of great knowledge. Clearly written, gorgeous illustrations and photography.
Knowledge is power.

This book is designed to answer the “whys” (or the Frequently Asked Questions) to the “whats” of nutritional eating from a respected nutritionist. I thought the book content was excellent.

The information in this book covered some of the same content in my classes

Book is geeat, I learned a lot and explained some things also to my kids. I wish nutrition was taught at school. It's basic, but few people know the fundamentals of healthy eating.

A brilliant book - a cross between a text book and a coffee table book. Each page is broken down into chunks, so it’s easy to dip in and out of it. For those wanting to know more about nutrition, but without it being too heavy reading, this is perfect. Aimed at non-specialists, I think they’ve got this absolutely right!

I picked this book up at work because it looked interesting. I'm only 56 pages in and have several issues with this book.
First, the book specified giving "Tap" water to kids starting at age 6. Anyone that knows what is in TAP water, knows how bad this is. Tap water is full of Flouride, hormones, pharmaceuticals and that's before you get started on the cleaning agents such as chlorine. All very bad for anyone, let alone a 6 month old.
Second, Canola oil is listed as a healthy oil. Canola oil is anything but healthy. It's genetically modified, highly processed and refined which causes inflammation, as well as all the issues that come with GMO's.
Third, a study is quoted as saying " A low intake of whole grains was the single dietary factor associated with most deaths in the U.S. and Western Europe." Where to even begin on this one. The study is not sited so I have no idea where this info came from. But I can assure you that with the American diet as it is, low intake of whole grains is not the problem. I'm interested to see what other Ludacris "science" will be served up. I guess you could say I would absolutely NOT recommend this book.

Easy to understand and layout is colorful and easy to understand.

This is a great, well-intentioned book. However, I’ve come across two errors now. I think the book needs proofreading again before publishing. Page 45 says to swap refined products for whole grains (that’s fine), but then it goes on to say-substitute wm bread for white bread and brown rice for white rice. There’s another print error a few pages before this too.

Finding a book that can explain nutrition in an easy and straightforward way has been difficult. However, this product provides everything - happy with product.

After listening to Rhiannon’s podcast ‘food for thought’ I decided to purchase this book .
It’s really informative but in a really clear and easy to read format .
Helpful sectioning to keep going back to and over .
Will be a book I keep referring too .

I’ve bought another nutrition book off Amazon and hated it but this one right here is amazing. I’m learning so much and can’t stop reading. I’d give it more than 5 stars if I could. It’s not bs either it’s using real science.

I've learned so much. This book is really worth it. I hesitated between different books around nutrition and finally chose this one. I don't regret it. It answered all my questions/doubts and more!

This book is unlike any I have read before. It’s so clear, easy to follow, holds beautifully, and is full of life changing tips. Don’t think twice just buy.

Great book, with great information on macronutrients

This book has helped me understand nutrition to a much greater degree. It’s easily accessible and identifies so many nutritional questions. I bought this to help me with completing my masters in nutrition but have also made all my family read it as it’s so interesting! Highly recommend this book!

Great content and a coffee table friendly design. Purchased on Amazon for half what the big name bookstore wanted for it.

Very educational

Highly recommended for anyone who cares about health. Arguably, the best book for nutrition.

This book repeats an embarrassing number of questionable nutrition claims often without even having primary sources in the bibliography (which was not even printed in the book); This isn't science.

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!
