I really liked this book because it informs people about each food group and their importance in nutrition but above all is an eye opener for those who have never being exposed to the concept of whole food and the importance to partake in the betterment of our agriculture and how does the multiple pesticides and fungides affects the nutritional value of our foods. It encourages people to take a good look at what they are putting in their mouths and make them aware that going organic is the safest way to go. We need to support the organic nmovement for the sake of our present health status and generations to come.
