Challenging the Calorie Theory: Why and How Our Culinary Community Can Heal Us (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781977258243)

Calories were invented when engineers sought to design better locomotives and adopted while citizens were at risk of starvation due to famine, depression, and two world wars.

This groundbreaking book: -Explains culinary trends in a new language for fitness enthusiasts -Provides graphs and charts for easy reference -Offers a new scale of nutritional measurement for policy makers, clinical dietitians, even school administrators -Proves consistent with both holistic methods and modern medical research -And motivates chefs to assume their rightful place in line for future federal investments, as food science gradually becomes preventative healthcare
