Lascia che questa guida sia il tuo nutrizionista amichevole, pronto a sfatare i miti alimentari più comuni e a darti le risposte a quelle domande urgenti sulla salute con informazioni facili da digerire. Il vino rosso fa bene al cuore? la caffeina aumenta la pressione sanguigna? how food works ti dà le risposte a queste e a molte altre domande esaminando le affermazioni che circondano una varietà di alimenti e analizzandole da un punto di vista biologico. Scopri i dati nutrizionali sugli alimenti che mangi, impara i benefici dei supercibi e degli antiossidanti e vai dietro le quinte della moderna produzione alimentare. Ricco di infografiche e immagini colorate, il libro approfondisce la scienza alla base di modi di mangiare, tra cui senza glutine e veganismo, nonché i benefici di diverse diete da tutto il mondo. Sfogliando le pagine si capisce perché si verificano le intolleranze alimentari, cosa rende effettivamente biologico il cibo, quanto sono importanti le date di scadenza e quanto sale si dovrebbe effettivamente mangiare. I lettori scopriranno anche le implicazioni sociali ed economiche delle scelte alimentari, come i disturbi alimentari e le attività del commercio equo e solidale. Indispensabile e accessibile a grandi e piccini, how food works è il compagno perfetto per la salute e la dieta.

There are hundreds of myths and misunderstandings about food today. Whether you're wondering if certain foods are good or bad for you, or just looking for a few interesting facts about cooking, this book will surely keep you entertained and well informed. (How it Works)
This is a stunning book which I recommend with great enthusiasm. Dorling Kindersley are a British publisher specialising in visual reference books, and they have, yet again, shown their mastery in translating complex information into gorgeous pictures. And most importantly, retaining detail and accuracy of the subject, without drift and dilution. This book provides lots of great science about food and nutrition, presented beautifully.
