Animal, vegetable, junk: A history of food, from sustainable to suicidal
Par Mark Bittman. 2021
"Epic and engrossing." —The New York Times Book Review From the #1 New York Times bestselling author and pioneering journalist,…
an expansive look at how history has been shaped by humanity's appetite for food, farmland, and the money behind it all—and how a better future is within reach. The story of humankind is usually told as one of technological innovation and economic influence—of arrowheads and atomic bombs, settlers and stock markets. But behind it all, there is an even more fundamental driver: Food. In Animal, Vegetable, Junk, trusted food authority Mark Bittman offers a panoramic view of how the frenzy for food has driven human history to some of its most catastrophic moments, from slavery and colonialism to famine and genocide—and to our current moment, wherein Big Food exacerbates climate change, plunders our planet, and sickens its people. Even still, Bittman refuses to concede that the battle is lost, pointing to activists, workers, and governments around the world who are choosing well-being over corporate greed and gluttony, and fighting to free society from Big Food's grip. Sweeping, impassioned, and ultimately full of hope, Animal, Vegetable, Junk reveals not only how food has shaped our past, but also how we can transform it to reclaim our futureNaturopathic doctor believes that genetic medical conditions can be prevented or possibly reversed by cleaning up genes that either were…

cette évidente inefficacité, démontrée par de nombreuses études, pourquoi restons-nous si obsédés par les régimes? Pourquoi tant focaliser sur ce que nous mangeons alors qu'il est prouvé que les privations sont mauvaises pour notre santé? La diététicienne Christy Harrison montre du doigt le culte de l'image et l'éloge du corps mince, signe de beauté et de vitalité, deux notions largement véhiculées par des industries richissimes qui exploitent les personnes désireuses de prendre soin d'elles-mêmes. Elle dénonce les idées toxiques qui ont infiltré le monde de la santé et nous encourage à cesser les approches inutiles - voire nocives - visant la perte de poids. Sa solution pour retrouver l'équilibre physique et mental? Le retour à une alimentation saine et intuitive, basée sur nos véritables besoins. Cessons de jeter notre argent par les fenêtres et faisons enfin la paix avec le contenu de notre assiette!We are what we eat: A slow food manifesto
Par Alice Waters. 2021
From chef and food activist Alice Waters, an impassioned plea for a radical reconsideration of the way each and every…
one of us cooks and eats In We Are What We Eat , Alice Waters urges us to take up the mantle of slow food culture, the philosophy at the core of her life&’s work. When Waters first opened Chez Panisse in 1971, she did so with the intention of feeding people good food during a time of political turmoil. Customers responded to the locally sourced organic ingredients, to the dishes made by hand, and to the welcoming hospitality that infused the small space—human qualities that were disappearing from a country increasingly seduced by takeout, frozen dinners, and prepackaged ingredients. Waters came to see that the phenomenon of fast food culture, which prioritized cheapness, availability, and speed, was not only ruining our health, but also dehumanizing the ways we live and relate to one another. Over years of working with regional farmers, Waters and her partners learned how geography and seasonal fluctuations affect the ingredients on the menu, as well as about the dangers of pesticides, the plight of fieldworkers, and the social, economic, and environmental threats posed by industrial farming and food distribution. So many of the serious problems we face in the world today—from illness, to social unrest, to economic disparity, and environmental degradation—are all, at their core, connected to food. Fortunately, there is an antidote. Waters argues that by eating in a &“slow food way,&” each of us—like the community around her restaurant—can be empowered to prioritize and nurture a different kind of culture, one that champions values such as biodiversity, seasonality, stewardship, and pleasure in work. This is a declaration of action against fast food values, and a working theory about what we can do to change the course. As Waters makes clear, every decision we make about what we put in our mouths affects not only our bodies but also the world at large—our families, our communities, and our environment. We have the power to choose what we eat, and we have the potential for individual and global transformation—simply by shifting our relationship to food. All it takes is a taste.  Mejora tu salud de poquito a poco: una guía completa de bienestar para ti y tu familia
