Must-read books about nutrition...


I wanted to post a list of some of the incredible books I've been reading.

If you care about your and your family's health (and I know you do), I would really encourage you to borrow these titles from your local library.  Read them with an open mind, and they could change your life. I will post a lot more about our family's health journey in the coming days/weeks.


Alright, here is my list of must read books about nutrition.  Yes, they are very pro-plant based diet.

These books have changed the way I view food and I hope they can do the same for you.  I'm sure there are many, many more.  I'll add them as I read them!

The top four are my biggest recommendations.  They are by far the best books I read on this topic.

  • The China Study by T. Colin Campbell (Must-read!)
  • Healthy Eating, Healthy World by J. Morris Hicks  (This is probably my favorite of the bunch for it's ease of reading and great information/inspiration.)
  • Food Revolution by John Robbins
  • Diet for a New American by John Robbins

  • No More Bull! by Howard F. Lymen
  • Forks over Knives (The How-to Companion the Documentary)
  • No Happy Cows by John Robbins
  • Food Inc. (The Participants Guide)
  • Let Them Eat Junk! by Robert Albritton
  • The End of Food by Thomas Pawlick
  • Disease-Proof Your Child by Joel Fuhrman
  • Fat Chance, beating the odds against SUGAR, PROCESSED FOOD, OBESITY, and DISEASE by Robert H. Lustig
  • The Crazy Makers, how the food industry is destroying our brains and harming our children by Carol Simontacchi
  • Whole Foods to Thrive by Brendan Brazier
  • SALT, SUGAR, FAT, how the food giants hooked us...  by Michael Moss





    Some documentaries you might want to watch:
    • Earthlings (caution - there is some seriously disturbing footage in this doc, so be careful when you watch and if you're sensitive, you may choose to opt out.  But, this is TRUTH, friends.  I forced myself to watch.)
    • Forks Over Knives
    • Food, Inc.



    If you have any more books or documentaries about plant-based eating, please, add them in the comments!
