يأتي هذا كتاب عين فتاحة عندما إلى طعام - مايكل [بولّن] [إين دفنس وف] طعام: آكلة بيان رسميّ. هو ليس حقّا نموذجيّة حمية كتاب مع وصفة أو حريرة يعدّ. المؤلفة يشارك مع نا لما حمية غربيّة يكون ال [أونهلثيست] في العالم. [إين فكت], مايكل [بولّوأن] 2006 كتاب, "[أمينفور] ورطةعيّنت," كان واحدة من العلويّة 10 كتب من السنة بنيويورك أوقات. أنا قد قرأت الكتاب وهنا بعض من مقتطفاته جيّدة في ي خاصّة كلمة.
العلويّة 8 أطراف مهمّة يستخرج من الكتاب:
- لا يأكل أيّ شيء أنّ [غرت-غرندموثر] ك لم يميّز كطعام. جدة عظيمة, لا يتساوى جدة. هكذا, يفترض جدتي عظيمة بعد حوالي, هو سوفت كنت 110 [ير ولد] الآن, أيّ يكون السنة من 1898. [أت ثت تيم], ما من [ستربوكس] قلى قهوة, ما من يعبّأ [يوغرت] شراب, ما من [شو غم], ما من إصبع يلحس كنتاكي جيّدة دجاجة.
- تفاديت [فوود برودوكت] أنّ يجعل صحة إدعاءات. كثير طعام أنفق شركات كثير مال أن يموّل بحث أن يأتي خارجا مع يبسل إدعاءات في هم تسويق حملة. لذلك, سمع أنت غالبا كيف جعة علبة مساعدة يقلّل قلب هجوم أو كيف شوكولاطة يمنع سرطان نوع من دراسة علميّة. مريضة, يميل مستهلكات أن يصدق هو. أكثر على الأرجح يحصل عذر أن يأكل أنّ طعام. هكذا, أنت يستطيع بأمان افترضت أنّ إن الطعام شركات حاولوا لذلك شديدة ويقنعنا منتوجه يصحّ, هو ليس عادة.
- طلعت من المغازة كبرى. Do not be misled by the statement and avoiding supermarket or convenience store at all costs. بالأحرى, يقترح هو أن يتفادى أكثر من ال يعالج منتوجات أنّ يكون بعت هناك. He mentioned that real food has disappeared from large areas of the supermarket and from much of the rest of the eating world. تفاديت [فست فوود] مأخذ أيضا. Go to farmers’ market instead. اشتريت محلّيّا ينمى بضائع مثل خضر وبيضات هناك.
- Eat mostly plants, especially leaves. [بلنت فوود], خصوصا أنّ مع أوراق, أقلّ [إنرج-دنس] من أكثر من الأخرى أشياء أنت أمكن أكلت. ب يأكل [بلنت-بسد] حمية, سيستهلك أنت قليل من حريرة (أيّ يكون بنفسي واقية ضدّ كثير أمراض مزمنة).
- أكلت أطعمة وحشيّة عندما يستطيع أنت. واحدة من المعامل غذائيّة عشب بحريّ أكثر لأنّ هو يكون وحشيّة, ولا ينمو عمدا. [ب وورث] حيوانات وحشيّة, أيضا, يضيف إلى حميتك عندما أنت تتلقّى الفرصة. لا يقتل غير أنّ, أيّ ب جازف نوع. Wild animal generally has less saturated fat and more omega-3 fatty acids than domesticated animals, because most wild animals eat a diverse diet of plants rather than grain. For example, wild fish have higher levels of omega-3s than fish rear in the pond.
- Eat less. Eat less when we get older. How? Serve smaller portions on smaller plates. Leave bones on your plate so that you can see how much you have eaten. Use glasses that are vertical than horizontal since people tend to pour more into squat glasses. Many have spent not only more money, but also more time. Eat less, and maybe you make up the financial difference.
- Eat meals. Many are snacking with junk food. People eat in front of TV, eat in the office and even in the car.
- Try not to eat alone. The author believes that we are less likely to eat more when others are watching. If you look at food marketing, it s designed to encourage people to eat in front of the TV or in the car.
Mun’s Comment
- Pollan’s tone throughout makes the book a fast and entertaining read. However, there is still good bit of reporting, especially about the history of nutrition science.
- The reason he did not share any recipe because he rather produced a series of rules that people could combine with their own inclinations so that they could have infinite number of eating styles and meal plans, instead of few rigid menu. He has boiled down the thrust of his argument to seven words. “Eat Food. Not Too Much. Mostly Plants.”
- Initially, I felt that he has made us feel hopeless, especially people living in city. However, having another deep thought - he is not trying to make us feel hopeless. Rather, he is trying to show what is wrong in order to give us the knowledge we need to fix it.
- What impress me the most when he mentioned that we need to be as vitamin-conscious as the person who takes supplements, but don’t actually take them.
If there is a diet related book you need to read in this year, it has to be Michael Pollan’s In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto.

Some good points there Mun, especially the first one. You can make your diet so much healthier by simply eating more real foods. Instead of going for that microwave meal have a stab at using real meats and vegetables to cook your own meal. Instead of going for that chocolate bar pick up a piece of fruit. Simple changes such as this can have a very positive impact on our overall health.

I think I agree with everything he said in the book! I mean, I haven’t read the book yet, but agree with all the points you written. We are eating too much processed food, so stay away from supermarket is correct. Instead buy food from farmers’ market, although it’s sometimes hard for us to do that.

Interesting book.
Well, there’s a big revolution out there for people to start eating right and something called Slow Food Movement seems to be catching on, which is something I am interested to find out more about.
Yep, we should stop eating less processed foods as you’re not entirely sure what is in that food, despite what the labels say. :-)
