Trick and Treat: How 'healthy eating' is making us ill.by Barry Groves, PhD.
Trick and Treat, almost 20 years in the making, is about how commercial 'health' interests rule our lives. It is big business that decides what doctors and nutritionists are taught. As a result, we are given advice that makes us ill and dependent on the companies that have damaged us. They then profit from treating our illnesses.
Trick and Treat was an Amazon.co.uk Number One Bestseller in the Preventive Medicine and Public Health category 10 days before it was actually available for sale in October 2008.
Trick and Treat was officially launched on 31 October. By 4 November it had to be reprinted, such was the demand in the UK and USA.
In 2011, Trick and Treat began use as a textbook at the University of South Florida.
Natural Health and Weight Loss, by Barry Groves, PhD, was published in 2007.
Natural Health and Weight Loss is the perfect companion to Trick and Treat. Where Trick and Treat tells of how and why our health is being undermined by Big Pharma and Big Food, Natural Health and Weight Loss
concentrates on how and what we should eat to be both slim and healthy.
