Ultra-Processed People & Food for Life 2 Books Collection Set by Tim Spector, Chris van Tulleken

Written by Tim Spector and Chris van Tulleken, this two-book collection brings together Ultra-Processed People and Food for Life. Across both titles, the focus is on how modern eating has changed and what that may mean for our understanding of food and health.

Ultra-Processed People explores a new “age of eating”, where much of what we consume comes from ultra-processed food described as industrially processed and designed and marketed to be addictive, while questioning what this is doing to our bodies. In Food for Life, Tim Spector sets out an approach to nutrition that moves away from calorie counts and nutritional breakdowns, drawing on more than a decade of scientific research alongside personal insights.
