There’s A Food For That! – Dr. Sadegh Arab & Mark Trudeau

The premise here is summed up in the subtitle: the top 100 foods to fight the top 100 diseases and [adverse medical] conditions in the US. So, how did they go about that?

They started by establishing the top 100 diseases/conditions, and also what dietary factors contribute to those, and then the top 100 foods, by nutritional values, and then tabulate those together so that we can see what foods fight what maladies.

Because the illness are ranked by prevalence in the US, not severity, we see for example the common cold in the #1 spot (because it sure is common), along with sometimes things we don’t often associated with dietary factors, such as chlamydia or plantar warts. Nevertheless, even in cases such as those, at the very least we can boost our immune systems. Many other conditions are much more serious, and often much more closely related to diet, such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and osteoporosis.

The style is quite clinical, yet easily comprehensible, and largely reductive to the data at hand.

Bottom line: if you’d like to tweak your diet to fortify you against some condition or other, then this book will guide you through many.
