Diet Cults: The Surprising Fallacy at the Core of Nutrition Fads and a Guide to Healthy Eating for the Rest of US
“In this book, Fitzgerald  takes aim at the long list of dietary approaches that claim to be the "One True Way" to eat healthily, arguing instead for what he calls "agnostic healthy eating." The key (which he has introduced in previous books) is a ranking of 10 categories of food, and the goal is simply that, wherever a food falls in that hierarchy, you should generally aim to have more of the foods that rank above it and less of the foods that rank below it.And you know what? I agree. You can quibble about some of the details, but this is not a bad description of the way I aim to eat. I'll eat anything, more or less, but always aiming to have more of the things at the top of the ladder than at the bottom. If you're a fellow dietary agnostic, the book is worth a read.” (Alex Hutchinson - Runner's World)“A delicious read. I am always amazed at how much I learn from Matt Fitzgerald's books.Diet Cultsdives into the human nature, psychology, and pleasure aspect of food. I devoured it.” (Shalene Flanagan, Olympic Bronze Medalist)
