Processed and fake foods have become the primary source of calories in the United States—a trend that is growing across the developed world. While these \"Frankenfoods\" efficiently feed the majority of our citizens, they do not contain the sustaining biological and chemical properties of food produced in nature. This fast-food solution is causing a fast-food genocide that is shaping our bodies and our futures, Joel Fuhrman, MD, warns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEating these unhealthy foods make us fatter and profoundly affects our brains, behaviors, and even our genetic makeup, leaving us helpless to social forces that will keep us eating fast food forever, he explains. They create an avalanche of harmful problems—chronic disease, lowered intelligence levels, and attention deficits that are intrinsically linked to poverty, reduced educational and occupational opportunities, and even increased drug addiction, violence, and crime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn urgent call to action, \u003cem\u003eFast Food Genocide\u003c\/em\u003e also provides a clear and very achievable solution. While food can destroy the world, it can also heal it. We must take back control of our diet—by eating specific natural ingredients in a balanced way—and in doing so, our right to a healthy, long life. \"Greater knowledge leads to a solution; a solution to your personal health issues and a solution for our society.\" Dr. Fuhrman writes. \"But it starts with you.\"\u003c\/p\u003e | \u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eFast Food Genocide\u003c\/em\u003e, #1 \u003cem\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/em\u003e bestselling 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, and he reveals the solution that’s been hiding in plain sight: a nutrient-dense, healthful diet that can save lives.\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.
