In defense of food

I've been meaning to read this book for a while, in the mean time, here's a video of the author giving a lecture about nutrition science. Heard it on the radio one night and was listening with both ears glued to the speakers, very interesting stuff.

Be warned, about an hour long, for a rainy day.

Thanks for the link - I will check that out tonight.
I read that book plus his "Omnivore's Dilemma" awhile ago, and they definitely are thought-provoking.

I just love the line about carrots and potatoes being left out in the "carbohydrate cold" when the Atkins diet swept the West.
