But we hope that after reading this book, you will think about it more often and appreciate your body's relationship to food. This book examines the concepts of what your food is, how your body sees, processes and uses food as well as how things can go wrong. By taking this journey with us, you will become a more mindful person about "who" is in your food and what food really means to your cells. Written by a scientist and edited by a non-scientific minded person, this book is designed to give you a basic understanding of the science involved in how your body uses food, as well as provide you with exercises to conduct more in-depth research and further enhance your knowledge of the subjects.--From back cover
