BACKGROUNDBACKGROUND Start the Diet Now Advertisement

In these current eco-aware times, we are overturning all aspects of our lifestyles and wondering how can we improve our health and the health of our planet?

In The Food Revolution: How Your Diet Can Help Save Your Life and Our World, author John Robbins ( Diet of a New America ) encourages us all to adopt vegetarian lifestyle for not just the planet for ourselves as well. The book, which also includes a foreword by Dr. Dean Ornish, examines how the practices of the our food industry has increased global warming, led to animal cruelty, unsafe meat production and consumption and genetically modified food.

Robbins, who is actually an heir to the Baskin Robbins empire, then focuses on the massive positive shift that is occurring throughout the entire world to undo some of this damage and lead to more humane and healthier food practices and eating behaviors. He discusses the role that the organic food movement, policy changes and consumer activism are playing for a true Food Revolution where the health of all living beings is honored and respected.

CONCLUSIONCONCLUSION

A controversial read by an heir of the Baskin Robbins ice cream empire, The Food Revolution gives an jaw-dropping account of how the food production and consumption trends have led to global warming, obesity, inhumane animal practices and a rise in food-borne disease. But rather than point to all that is wrong in our current food system, Robbins motivates the reader to take action and become a vegetarian as he not only discusses frank facts and figures of the perils of eating meat but also how The Food Revolution is taking place all over the world in an effort to better our individual and collective health.
