Food Fix: How to Save Our Health, Our Economy, Our Communities and Our Planet – One Bite at a Time

Product Information

Mark Hyman is phenomenal in gathering and providing the strategies to challenge the Big and modern Food and Agriculture that affect our lives seriously negatively and turn it around for not just our health, but our survival on our planet. The passion she shows and the trust she has earned across the spectrum of issues she reports on makes her work an invaluable resource. Mark Hyman has written several books on nutrition and a leader in the field of integrative medicine, an up-and-coming field that focuses on the whole patient and their environment. After this blissful day of shared food memories, great conversation, local wine, artisanal breads, homemade Lemoncello and unrelenting smiles that make your face ache, we walk down up a short incline to our private villa, where you retreat to your room for a nap, or grab a book and lounge on the patio to soak up more of the dazzling Mediterranean view.

And, with Tim Ryan in 2015, helped introduce the ENRICH Act into Congress to fund nutrition in medical education.It’s easy to make a Captain Obvious recommendation to not drink soda, but has the author ever lived on food stamps to understand what actually qualifies? Concretely makes the connection to the majority of our world s problems stemming from our broken food systems and poor governance and production standards. Or frosé drinks that usually contain about 25g of sugar and are served at brunch tables of the middle and upper middle class? It’s been wonderful to meet these passionate hard-working people who work the land and create these delicious, unique wines.

Hyman has worked with President Clinton, presenting at the Clinton Foundation's Health Matters, Achieving Wellness in Every Generation conference, and the Clinton Global Initiative, as well as with the World Economic Forum on global health issues.

A competition ensues in which you each rally around your favorite shows and insist that the others “have to watch it,” or “can’t miss it” or that you can’t believe they “haven’t seen it yet. A sobering reflection on norms and fads that seem sensible but when tested with recent scientific understanding and a holistic perspective, challenge conventional wisdom relating to health, nutrition and global warming. Few issues are as important as the food the world grows, transports, wastes, and consumes, and few people can capture this picture, and can be as creative with solutions as Mark Hyman. However, the subtitle belies the book's fundamental flaw: you can't save the planet one bite at a time. Reduce heat to medium, add onion to the pan and cook until soft, about 5 minutes; add garlic, ginger, coriander, cumin, cinnamon, dried apricots and tomato.

She has gone back to work, travelling around the world teaching, and saved vast amounts of money on medication. The author claims that our industrial, agricultural and food system (including food waste) is the single biggest cause of climate change.

Mark Hyman, MD, believes that we all deserve a life of vitality--and that we have the potential to create it for ourselves.
