Self-Help Diet
Referred to as the "Grand Prix of epidemiology" by The
New York Times, this study examines more than 350
variables of health and nutrition with surveys from 6,500
adults in more than 2,500 counties across China and Taiwan,
and conclusively demonstrates the link between nutrition and
heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. While revealing that
proper nutrition can have a dramatic effect on reducing and
reversing these ailments as well as curbing obesity, this
text calls into question the practices of many of the
current dietary programs, such as the Atkins diet, that are
widely popular in the West. The politics of nutrition and the impact of special interest
groups in the creation and dissemination of public
information are also discussed.
