For 1212 Drop 01 we have chosen the book 

'In Defence of Food' By Micheal Pollan 

Pollan proposes a new (and very old) answer to the question of what we should eat that comes down to seven simple but liberating words: Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants. By urging us to once again eat food, he challenges the prevailing nutrient-by-nutrient approach — what he calls nutritionism — and proposes an alternative way of eating that is informed by the traditions and ecology of real, well-grown, unprocessed food. Our personal health, he argues, cannot be divorced from the health of the food chains of which we are part of.

For the duration of 1212 Drop 01 we will discuss some of the key topics that Pollan raises over our newsletter. Subscribe below to receive updates.
