Description & Specifications

We know that our diet affects our health. But is there more to the saying "you are what you eat?" By connecting the dots from agriculture to medicine, geologist David R. Montgomery and biologist Anne Biklé argue that we overlook the other half of a healthy diet: how we grow our food. Traveling from research labs to the fields of regenerative farmers, they reveal scientific and historical evidence on how farming practices—often disruptive to microbial relationships—affect soil health and shape the types and amounts of health-promoting minerals, fats, and phytochemicals in our produce, meat, and dairy—and consequently in ourselves. Understanding these connections has significant implications for what we eat and how we grow it, now and in the future. A culminating work from esteemed authors, "What Your Food Ate" is a story as serious as it is inspiring: what is good for the soil is good for us too.
