About this ebook
“Never in history have humans eaten so much, so frequently, so constantly and so incorrectly.
We all must eat but few of us study what we eat. We often just consume whatever we fancy and not what is good for us.
Many of our eating habits stem from childhood and our parents’ ways, later from social influences and peer
pressures and always from constant every day intense and glossy advertising by the food industry.
Fast food, takeaways and the mass of carb, fat, sugar, processed and chemical loaded items available has resulted in about half of modern humans becoming overweight.
Retired journalist James Larkin tells you how he changed his life style, lost lots of weight and got healthy and happier. You can do it too.
