The media is full of advice about what we should eat and warnings about what we shouldn't. What should you believe-and how much of what you hear can you trust? In this title, the author dispels the confusion and applies his knowledge of food chemistry to the top food trends. It also looks at the real science behind losing weight.

Cutting through the lies and confusion dished up on a daily basis by a sensationalized media, An Apple a Day serves up the truth about what you’re putting into your body, and what it’s doing to you.

Bestselling author and chemistry professor Joseph Schwarz dismantles the misconceptions surrounding today’s fad diets and food trends. With quick wit and scientific fact An Apple a Day will become your greatest defence against the continuous bombardment of conflicting information, and allow you to better understand the food you eat and the science behind it.
