Eating habits have changed over time, food production processes have changed over time, and the quality of food has changed over time. All these changes affect the well-being of individuals, despite the fact that they are vital to our bodies. Now the question is: what kind of food is best for our well-being?

Let Food Be Your Medicine by Dr. Steve Kringold is a well-analyzed book on food that highlights the changes food has made over the years, beginning from our ancestors to the emergence of farming to date, where a lot of technologies are used in food. Knowledge is very vital, and this book is one that opens one up to new things. I just realized that our diet has a substantial role to play in our health. Going back to the days of our ancestors, you could see that it wasn’t that easy to get food. But the food of those days was very rich in nutrients. But today, technology and science have played a huge role in food through advanced food processing machines and GMOs. But this has left us with lots of food with no nutritional value, and due to its cost and quantity, people consume it in high quantities, which leads to problems later on. This book is an eye-opener and teaches a lot about the food we eat and what to do to live a healthy life. It's important you get a copy.

This book provides a holistic approach to nutrition while emphasizing the importance of a well-rounded diet over isolated supplements. It also promotes the consumption of plant-based foods, highlighting their superior nutrient content as opposed to processed foods, which have a minimal nutrient content. The inclusion of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains is encouraged for optimal health. The book also talks about specific aspects of health, such as bone health, brain function, inflammation reduction, and heart health, while providing practical advice on incorporating essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals for each aspect discussed. I loved the narrative pattern and writing style used by the author in writing this book. It made the book look serious and authentic due to the data provided.

The book does not emphasize the importance of moderation in dietary choices. While highlighting nutritious foods, it should address the significance of balance and occasional indulgences to maintain a sustainable and enjoyable approach to eating. Also, the book doesn’t give much emphasis on the role of physical activity in overall health. I also noticed an error while reading. Following the dislike mention, I would rate this book four out of five stars. The book was properly edited, and its subject is a universal one; therefore, I would recommend this book to every adult reader.

"Let Food Be Your Medicine" by Dr. Steve Kringold serves as a well-analyzed exploration of the evolving landscape of food, spanning from our ancestors to the present-day impact of technology and science on food production. The book skillfully underscores the crucial link between diet and health, shedding light on the nutritional decline in contemporary processed foods.

The holistic approach to nutrition presented in the book advocates for a well-rounded diet, favoring plant-based foods rich in nutrients over processed alternatives with minimal nutritional value. The emphasis on specific health aspects, such as bone health, brain function, inflammation reduction, and heart health, provides practical insights into incorporating essential nutrients for overall well-being.

The author's narrative pattern and writing style contribute to the book's seriousness and authenticity, bolstered by well-presented data. However, the book falls short in highlighting the importance of moderation in dietary choices, a key aspect for sustainable and enjoyable eating habits. Additionally, it could benefit from addressing the role of physical activity in overall health.

Despite these minor drawbacks, the book stands out for its proper editing and universal relevance. With a four out of five stars rating, it is a commendable resource that I recommend to every adult reader seeking valuable insights into the relationship between food choices and a healthy lifestyle.
