We've been told that dairy does a body good, but the truth is that cheese can be dangerous. Loaded with calories, fat, and cholesterol, cheese can make you gain weight and leads to a host of health problems like high blood pressure and arthritis. Worse, it contains mild opiates that make it addictive, triggering the same brain receptors as heroin and morphine. In The Cheese Trap, Dr. Neal Barnard presents a comprehensive program to help listeners break free of their cheese addiction.

Now, in Whole, he explains the science behind that evidence, the ways our current scientific paradigm ignores the fascinating complexity of the human body, and why, if we have such overwhelming evidence that everything we think we know about nutrition is wrong, our eating habits haven’t changed.

By now, the low-carb diet's refrain is a familiar one: "Bread is bad for you. Fat doesn't matter. Carbs are the real reason you can't lose weight. In The Low-Carb Fraud, longtime leader in the nutritional science field T. Colin Campbell outlines where and how the low-carb proponents get it wrong: Where the belief came from that carbohydrates are bad and why it persists despite all the evidence to the contrary. The foods we misleadingly refer to as "carbs" aren't all created equal, and treating them that way has major consequences for our nutritional well-being.

Lacked substance
I got this book as I am looking to become vegetarian. I am a runner and triathlete, but very much a middle of the pack with no danger of winning races. The title of this book sounded intriguing, but it turns out it was not what I was looking for. The author acknowledges that some, but not all people, have eating compulsions where more is always better. Fair enough, but she assumes that all athletes are compulsive over-trainers and a Olympic potential athletes, not weekend warriors.
So, here is the summary of the entire book:
All meat and dairy is gross. But there are hundreds of fruits and vegetables you can eat, and you can season them to make them taste good. The rest of the book is details on grams, micrograms, and percentages.
There, I just saved you six hours and a credit.

Brilliant
As a plant based athlete I have never been able to find information specifically catered to athletes; as great as the doctors promoting this lifestyle are, most of them talk about the needs of normal people who don't need to reach optimal performance. This book has provided helped me learn more about something that wasn't available else where - how a plant based diet can increase athletic performance.
