The Most Extensive Book on Environmental Nutrition!

This book is definitely the most in depth book on environmental nutrition there is to date. It delves into the many issues relating to environmental nutrition including pesticides and other food contaminants, organic foods, sustainable agriculture, and the governmental surveillance of food and environmental toxins. It not only discusses food toxins, toxins in the U.S. food supply, and the impact of toxins on the body but also addresses current nutrition practices and their lack of connection with then environment. The book also discusses in depth the chemical structures of pesticides, food additives, and other substances and how the chemical structures relate to the compounds' reactions. Nevertheless, the book is written in such a way as to be understood by all. This is an excellent read for the layperson and scientist alike!
