Book Description:

Are organic foods really any better for you than nonorganic? Is it possible that consuming dietary fat can actually have health benefits? And wouldn't eating turnip roots be equivalent to eating turnip greens? Despite the current attention focused upon "eating healthy," many people believe common myths regarding our food choices.
