Whether it is the calming, relaxing effect of the tipple, or any magic nutrient such as possibly the resveratrol in red wine, he ponders. Most of us will benefit from his advices, not just these like me who “have a glass of wine with dinner”, which Pollan defends through “considerable scientific evidence” since “alcohol of any kind appears to reduce the risk of heart disease”. You manage to read it easily within a day, in a span of a long-haul flight or take it a slice by slice as a memorable treat, because of the one small page print of each point. In this pea-hued pocket book titled Food Rules, Pollan simplifies his by science backed findings that he published in his previous, much broader books, into 64 bold yet plain rules that can serve as “an eater’s manual”. Such as “Avoid foods you see advertised on television”. Often, the author’s broad, years spanning research does not yield revolutionary conclusions, yet it confirms what a common sense would whisper to our caffeinated and by sugar fidgeting minds.
His books have been globally well accepted by readers enjoying his abbreviated and clear writing style. His previous books In Defence of Food and The Omnivore’s Dilemma won the coveted James Beard Award. many of the new rules, suggested by readers, underscore the central teachings of the original, which are that eating doesn't have to be so complicated and that food is as much about pleasure and community as it is about nutrition and health.The best-selling american author and food journalist Michael Pollan is the most known critic of our food system and of the modern Western diet. this illustrated edition with an expanded new introduction and nineteen additional food rules, marks an advance in the national dialogue that food rules inspired.
