These include: cold breakfast cereals; commercial and preserved (deli) meats and cheeses; sandwich breads and buns; chips, pretzels, and crackers; fried foods; energy bars; and soft drinks. Fast foods have become the primary source of calories in the United States and consequently the most far-reaching and destructive influence on our population. The indisputable truth is that our highly processed diet is the source of a national health crisis that is exploding into a genocide with unseen tragic implications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeart attacks, strokes, cancer, obesity, ADHD, autism, allergies, and autoimmune diseases all have the same root cause – our addiction to toxic ingredients. \u003cem\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/em\u003ebestselling author, board-certified physician, nutritional researcher, and leading voice in the health field Joel Fuhrman, M.D., explains why the problem of poor nutrition is deeper, more serious, and more pervasive than anyone imagined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cp\u003eFast Food Genocide \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/em\u003edraws on twenty-five years of clinical experience and research to confront our fundamental beliefs about the impact of what we eat. This book identifies issues at the heart of our country’s most urgent problems. Fast food kills, but it also perpetuates bigotry and derails the American dream of equal opportunity and happiness for all. It leaves behind a wake of destruction creating millions of medically dependent and sickly people burdened with poor-quality lives.\u003cp\u003eThe solution hiding in plain sight — a nutrientdense healthful diet — can save lives and enable humans to reach their intellectual potential and achieve successful and fulfilling lives. Dr. Fuhrman offers a life-changing, scientifically sound approach that can alter American history and perhaps save your life in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e | \u003cp\u003eDr. Fuhrman has done what no one else has done in a clear, powerful way--connect the dots not only between food and our obesity and diabetes epidemic, but food and almost everything that’s wrong with our society. Poverty, violence, ADD, and declining intellectual capital of our nation, autism, dementia, cancer, and chronic disease. This book will change the way you think about what you eat and has broad implications for policy makers and the health care system. In fact, it should be required reading for every member of Congress and anyone who cares about social justice. - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMark Hyman, MD, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Eat Fat, Get Thin and Director of the Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Dr. Fuhrman connects the dots not only between food and our obesity and diabetes epidemic, but food and almost everything that’s wrong with our society...should be required reading for every member of Congress and anyone who cares about social justice.” - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMark Hyman, MD, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Eat Fat, Get Thin and Director of the Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Joel Fuhrman has long been a leader in nutritional medicine, and now he puts his expertise to work for those who need it most.
