Deep Nutrition

*Sports Illustrated* Best Health Books of 2017. Physician and biochemist Dr. Catherine Shanahan’s *Deep Nutrition* dispels modern diet myths, revealing how ancestral eating habits promote health and longevity. Dr. Shanahan synthesizes wisdom from long-lived cultures (Mediterranean, Okinawa, Blue Zones) into "The Human Diet," based on four strategies: fresh food, fermented and sprouted foods, meat cooked on the bone, and organ meats. Drawing on personal experience and cutting-edge epigenetics research, she shows how food acts as vital information, shaping cellular growth and altering DNA—proving genetics are not destiny. This prescriptive guide offers a path to improved mood, fertility, and cognition; stronger bones; healthier skin; and reduced allergies, disease, and cravings.
