Boekbeoordeling

Meer over het boek

Investigative reporter Michael Moss delves into the alarming parallels between food and addiction, revealing that processed foods can be as addictive as drugs or alcohol. He examines how food manufacturers exploit our biological cravings for sweetness and convenience, using over fifty types of sugar to manipulate our expectations. Moss highlights the industry's response to dieting trends by creating "diet" versions of junk food that offer little real change. Through a compelling narrative of legal battles and marketing tactics, he exposes the food industry's role in the public health crisis surrounding compulsive eating.
