Summary

You know what’s good for you, right? WRONG. Find out the truths behind the biggest health and body myths of our time.
 
Every day we’re bombarded with new rules on what we should or shouldn’t eat or drink, how much exercise to do, and how to stay healthy. No wonder we’re confused. Enter Myth-Busting Your Body. Using the latest scientific research, it reveals the truth behind the biggest “wellness” myths of our times. Find out why most vitamins are useless, juicing is just a fad, and clean eating can be dangerous. It also debunks scaremongering health headlines, such as “everyone should avoid gluten” and “don’t eat fats.” Enhanced with lively infographics and color illustrations, this book challenges everything you thought you knew, provides holistic insight into human biology and the complexities of the body, and gives scientifically proven guidance on how to make real positive changes.
