About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
This audiobook contains exclusive bonus content between Drs Chris and Xand van Tulleken, where they deep-dive into what you've just listened to at the end of each part.
An eye-opening investigation into the science, economics, history and production of ultra-processed food.
It's not you, it's the food.
We have entered a new 'age of eating' where most of our calories come from an entirely novel set of substances called Ultra-Processed Food, food which is industrially processed and designed and marketed to be addictive. But do we really know what it's doing to our bodies?
Join Chris in his travels through the world of food science and a UPF diet to discover what's really going on. Find out why exercise and willpower can't save us, and what UPF is really doing to our bodies, our health, our weight, and the planet (hint: nothing good).
For too long we've been told we just need to make different choices, when really we're living in a food environment that makes it nigh-on impossible. So this is a book about our rights. The right to know what we eat and what it does to our bodies and the right to good, affordable food.

Incredible eye opener
Never will I think about food in the same way. The book reminded me of fresh home made cooking habits we used to have in India until only about 10 years ago and how all of that life is being sucked out to serve the greed of few...
It''s reminded me to go back to the tracks of life I'd lost since coming to UK a few decades ago....
It's also explained why the first word that comes to my mind when I think of prepared pizzas or fries or stuff from fast-food chains is "yuk", and why I feel so much better after eating an apple than after eating a store prepared crisp or muffin.... !!
This book is for revolutionising the way you look at, or as author days at least choose to explore, options.
Well done to the author for brining this book on the table!

Devil is in the detail
The book gives you the hidden
'what', and the meticulous 'why' for everything you may consider normal, or usual. This book is reveals a Black Swan for many.
