Description:
Dr. Richard Béliveau and Dr. Denis Gingras discuss the powerful link between food and health, turning their lens on a broader array of diseases and conditions. With accessible explanations of complex medicine and research, the authors discuss the impact of diet on four major chronic diseases currently affecting our society: cardiovascular disease, Type-2 diabetes, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease. They demonstrate how a preventive approach can have an extraordinary impact on our quality of life. They show us just how easy—and pleasurable—it can be to alter our diets for optimum health.
