Food for Life: How the New Four Food Groups Can Save Your Life by Neal D. Barnard, MD

Dr. Bernard writes, "Certain foods slow the effects of time, while others speed them up. In addition, foods can change the amounts of hormones in the body." Citing overwhelming medical evidence previously downplayed by powerful lobby groups, Dr.Barnard reveals why a diet based on the four food groups (grains, legumes, vegetables, and fruits) will sharply decrease the risk of cancer and heart disease while increasing life expectancy. And, most important, he shows how the quality of your later years can be vital rather than full of chronic disease.  An unexpected plus for this program is weight loss by most who make the transition to this new way of healthy eating. Dr. Barnards books are very well documented with extensive footnotes to research.
