About the Book
Most of today’s mass-produced foods are seriously depleted of nutrients and are highly chemicalised with additives. Processed foods today are not just more sophisticated versions of the foods eaten by our ancestors.
A wide spectrum of essential nutrients have been removed from them in the manufacturing process. The basic molecular structure of what remains is also degraded and nutritionally inferior. One such food is bread.
