The Sustainable Diet

The Sustainable Diet is a timely and practical guide to a healthy planet and a healthy you, complete with 100 nutritious and delicious recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In Part One, Scott Gooding explains sustainability and looks at how farming practices have changed over the years. He answers the questions we all want to know about, such as 'Is eating animal products good for us, and the environment?' and 'Is veganism the answer?' Part Two contains 100 recipes that are good for you AND the planet. The Sustainable Diet is a step-by-step way to celebrate our planet and promote optimal health. It's about taking the long view and realising that the choices we make now, in terms of what we eat and how we produce our food, will affect not only you and me but our children and future generations. Not to mention the health of the planet and the welfare of millions of animals... The latest research indicates that it is possible to be healthy and eat in a way that is environmentally friendly. A sustainable diet is naturally low in carbs and high in nutrient-dense foods that are farmed in a way that has a low impact on our planet. Packed with information on the latest ethical eating practices and the science of how to nourish your body best, this book is much more than a diet - it's a way of life.
