I bought this book hoping to get some good information on making better choices in the grocery store, but also to get a book that is somewhat enjoyable to read. This book, like many books with the same topic, feels like a text book. It has the info you are looking for but it is fed to you in a dry, flat manner. It has been taking me quiet a while to get through, I wish she could have spiced it up a little.

Nancy,
I am engrossed in your book, “Death by Supermarket”. Wow, what a book! I have quite a collection of nutrition science books and yours is hands down the best. I do love Drs Eades, and just completed their “The 6-week Cure for the Middle AGed Middle:”(it really works-I am now a 76 year old with the belly I had at 25), but have learned more from your presentations than from any other book. Yes, Good Carbs/Bad Carbs is great, so are the works of Ravnskov and Mary Enig but yours is the book I’m giving to my daughters-in-law so they too may learn which will benefit my 13 grandkids and their struggle, LIKE ALL KIDS, with factory food addiction and weight gain.
I was happy to learn that Michelle Obama has concern about the huge problem this nation faces with ever increasing obesity. Concern is noble but surrounded by the inept and sometimes corrupted advice she will receive from FDA and USDA and the agri-business lobby, not counting the many nutritionists who are still glued to the lipid hypothesis, won’t give her the truth she needs to make a real contribution. I just wish there could be a way to connect you into this equation. I could send her your book, but it would never reach her. MAYBE YOU COULD. What a difference it could make. Consider it. PLEASE.
I will buy Karma, as I know it will be super–how could it not be- but hope and pray that you will keep your oar in the nutrition pond area.
Thank you for what you have done, and are doing, and what you will do.
John Kaye

Good book, it makes you think about what you eat and what you see at the grocery store.
Another example of money and power controlling much of our life in America. Some of the author’s
views may be a bit extreme, but it makes you think, especially abut the role and effectiveness of
government agencies that we think are fully protecting us.
