Publisher's Synopsis

In this book, Dr Sarah Schenker reveals the truth behind the biggest health and body myths of our times, with a scientific explanation as to why they are nonsense. Using the latest research, she reveals why most vitamins are useless, juicing is nothing more than a fad and clean eating can be dangerous. She also debunks scaremongering health headlines, such as "dairy is bad for you", "eating fat makes you fat" and "everyone should avoid gluten." Presented with full-colour illustrations and photographs, this book will challenge everything you thought you knew about a healthy lifestyle. If you're looking for guidance on positive change, each chapter presents helpful suggestions grounded in research. Moreover, it offers a fascinating, holistic insight into human biology and the complexities of the body.
