Food For Life and Spoon Fed 2 books Collection Set by Tim Spector

This two-book set brings together Food for Life and Spoon-Fed by Professor Tim Spector. Across both titles, Spector draws on scientific research and his own insights to examine what we think we know about food, and how evidence is used and misused in public debate.

Food for Life presents a wide-ranging look at modern food, from environmental impact and food fraud to allergies and deceptive labelling, while also highlighting surprising properties of everyday foods that scientists are only beginning to understand. In Spoon-Fed, Spector challenges common food myths and questions the quality of science behind many diet plans, official recommendations and so-called miracle cures, encouraging a rethink of our relationship with food in the context of both individual health and the planet’s future.
