Интересно, увлекателно написана книга, която успява по достатъчно смислен и научно аргументиран начин да разобличи редица "модерни" хранителни философии, да разясни взаимовръзките в хранителните ни навици и генетичната ни предразположеност и да ни даде по-пълна представа кое е наистина полезно за нас в съвременната среда на живот. Приятно и "леко" се чете, но все пак за хора, които имат по-богата медицинска култура (има доста терминология, препратки към генетика, биохимия и т.н., които за някои може да се сторят трудносмилаеми и отегчителни).
