Fast food genocide : how processed food is killing us and what we can do about it / by Fuhrman, Joel,author.; Phillips, Robert,contributor.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Revered nutrition and health expert, PBS personality, and bestselling author of Eat to Live, Super Immunity, and The End of Diabetes, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, delivers a hard-hitting, culture-shifting examination of the role fast and processed food plays in our nation's health crisis and offers a program to help us discover a lasting solution, including a two-week meal plan and 80 recipes. We're eating our way to discomfort, unhappiness, disease, and premature death. Processed and fake foods have become the primary source of calories in the United States--a trend that is growing across the developed world. While these "Frankenfoods" efficiently feed the majority of our citizens, they do not contain the sustaining biological and chemical properties of food produced in nature. This fast-food solution is causing a fast-food genocide that is shaping our bodies and our futures, Joel Fuhrman, MD, warns. Eating these unhealthy foods make us fatter and profoundly affects our brains, behaviors, and even our genetic makeup, leaving us helpless to social forces that will keep us eating fast food forever, he explains. They create an avalanche of harmful problems--chronic disease, lowered intelligence levels, and attention deficits that are intrinsically linked to poverty, reduced educational and occupational opportunities, and even increased drug addiction, violence, and crime. An urgent call to action, Fast Food Genocide also provides a clear and very achievable solution. While food can destroy the world, it can also heal it. We must take back control of our diet--by eating specific natural ingredients in a balanced way--and in doing so, our right to a healthy, long life. "Greater knowledge leads to a solution; a solution to your personal health issues and a solution for our society." Dr. Fuhrman writes. "But it starts with you.""--

It's based on one powerful assertion that makes this book radically different from others in this category: When your body moves, your psychology also changes for the better. Your feelings, thoughts, motivation, and behavior (what we call "inner fitness") improve! Your mind goes where your body leads, not the other way around.

Warren and Bill : Gates, Buffett, and the friendship that changed the world / by McCarten, Anthony,1961-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Few friendships have had such far-reaching implications for the world -- from finance to technology to philanthropy -- than that between Bill Gates and Warren Buffett. After meeting at a party in 1991, the two played cards and golf, shared jokes, swapped trade secrets, ate junk food, talked and listened. Their growing friendship would impact each man and lead to change on a grander scale, culminating in the development of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which holds nearly $50 billion in assets. How did such an unusual union blossom? In what ways specifically did each man begin to influence the other? How did these two avid wealth accumulators jointly decide to address some of the world's most critical problems -- poverty, disease, inequality -- by giving their wealth away? And what, finally, does their giga-wealthy partnership mean for the rest of us in an age of great wealth -- and great inequality? This book gives the fullest account yet of this extraordinary relationship and explores how it has transformed these two men -- and is changing the world for the better for all of us."--
