A review by zooegirlll
Cukier. Cichy zabójca. Jak pozbyć się uzależnienia od największej trucizny naszych czasów by Richard P. Jacoby, Raquel Baldelomar

2.0

this man tried to argue that American men live longer than Japanese men because of the American high fat diet, when in reality the years of functional health in old age are much higher in Japanese men than American men. For example, American men may live longer, but they suffer an average of 7+ more years of not being able to walk on their own, suffering from dementia and heart disease. (Read How Not to Die by Dr. Greger -- he actually cities scientific sources and studies unlike this book which relies on medical jargon to make people think he knows what he's talking about).

I strongly agree that sugar and simple carbs should be limited and definitely agree with his findings about the connection between nerve damage and sugar consumption... but a high-fat, high animal product diet is not only detrimental to the body but also for the environment as well. Gross.

Also I find it extremely ironic that he says we shouldn't consume honey because honey bees are essential to the environment ... but has ZERO issue with animal products lmaoooo
