This book dispels many popular myths. In particular those laid down by the food industry. I have studied this subject for years and often by a new book to catch up on different ideas. You are left in no doubt as to how the food we eat these days is depleted and also by buying so-called 'healthy' eating foods we inevitably acidify our already acidic bodies. It also lays out clearly the fine balance particularly with fruits, between those that are acid and those that are not. Nicely and simply written, a must-have for those intent on cleaning up their act!
