There are 6 chapters looking at cells \u0026amp; DNA, the immune system, bones and teeth, the heart and other organs, the brain, and a final chapter looking at the synergistic benefits of an amazing ingredient.\u003cbr\u003e The nutritional benefits of the foods highlighted are based in sound science and the evolutionary 'fable' is garnished with known archaeological and food history. \u003cbr\u003e This is a book for anyone interested in using natural food as a source of health, wellbeing and defence against infection and chronic disease.\u003cbr\u003e There are 5 children's books coming soon, one for each chapter of this book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMatt Wright developed a fascination for the genius of ordinary food at 8 years old when he was told the story of how 'chickens foot jelly' cured his dad and his uncle of a fatal dose of whooping cough in 1930's London.\u003cbr\u003e With the advent of the internet he pursued his fascination with the health benefits of ordinary food and became steadily frustrated with the oceans of misleading and often contradictory information about food and nutrition on the internet.\u003cbr\u003e Having spent many years running web development agencies and developing high end information systems, Matt came up with the idea for checkyourfood.com, a site designed to bring clarity to an area awash with hearsay and misinformation.\u003cbr\u003e Matt recently completed an Open University module in Human Biology, studying nutrition at a cellular level and has a nutritional therapy qualification. Matt continues his research into nutritional science and food composition on a daily basis.\u003cbr\u003e Matt is responsible for the scientific research and data oversight at checkyourfood.com.
