In this fascinating, refreshingly clarifying book about food, food myths, and how sloppy science perpetuates misconceptions about food, a medical doctor on his way to a conference gets drawn into conversations that answer the following questions:

Is salt really not that bad for you and did a group of researchers really want to experiment on prisoners to prove the point?

Does coffee cause cancer or heart attacks? Why did a California court say coffee needed a warning label?

Is red wine really good for your heart, and what makes the French Paradox such a paradox?
