Absolutely TerribleJanuary 15, 2009 Brian J. Tietz 6 out of 13 found this review helpful
This book has a lot of false information in it, such as the cancer rate in U.S is declining and that it is safe to eat GMO foods. This is absolutely false and made me really pissed off. I believe that the woman who wrote this book was paid by a bunch of big corporations to feed junior college students a bunch of lies. I've done a lot of my own research on health and nutrition over the past ten years and the fact is that cancer in the U.S is increasing and GMO food is bad for you. This book is filled with lies including the lie that the pharmaceutical companies are your friends, HA! If that isn't the biggest lie of them all. Don't waste your money unless you want to be lied to.
