Food, We Need to Talk: The Science-Based, Humor-Laced Last Word on Eating, Diet, and Making Peace with Your Body

This is a pop-science book that dives into the research of eating, weight, and dieting — presented by the hosts of the NPR podcast Juna Gjata, Edward M. Phillips, M.D. This scientific exploration has a memoir like narrative in some of it’s presentation, blending anecdotal experiences to match the science facts. Each author brings forth practical and valuable perspectives on issues like metabolism, dieting, cultural notions of what is “healthy” food, fat loss, disordered eating, body image, and more. It will highlight the fact that many facts in this field are anecdotal and should be questioned and how people’s relationships with food are some of the most mind consuming and important topics to tackle in many people’s lives.
