Eat to Beat Disease – by Dr. William Li

Dr. William Li asks the important question: is your diet feeding disease, or defeating it?

Because everything we put in our bodies makes our health just a little better—or just a little worse. Ok, sometimes a lot worse.

But for most people, when it comes to diet, it’s a death of a thousand cuts of unhealthy food. And that’s what he looks to fix with this book.

The good news: Dr. Li (while not advocating for unhealthy eating, of course), focuses less on what to restrict, and more on what to include. This book covers hundreds of such healthy foods, and ideas (practical, useful ones!) on incorporating them daily, including dozens of recipes.

He mainly looks at five ways our food can help us with…

1. Angiogenesis (blood vessel replacement)
2. Regeneration (of various bodily organs and systems)
3. Microbiome health (and all of its knock-on effects)
4. DNA protection (and thus slower cellular aging)
5. Immunity (defending the body while also reducing autoimmune problems)

The style is simple and explanatory; Dr. Li is a great educator. Reading this isn’t a difficult read, but you’ll come out of it feeling like you just did a short course in health science.

Bottom line: if you’d like an easy way to improve your health in an ongoing and sustainable way, then this book can help you do just that.
