The Industrialization of Eating: The Essential Transformations
- From whole foods to refined: a change toward increasingly refined foods (mostly carbohydrates)
- From complexity to simplicity: the industrialization of the food chain has involved a process of chemical and biological simplification
- From quality to quantity: not only we’re eating a whole lot more but we’re getting substantially less nutrition per calorie than we used to.
- From leaves to seeds: leaves provide a host of critical nutrients a body can’t get from a diet of refined seeds.
- From food culture to food science: the industrialization of food is deliberately undermining traditional food cultures everywhere.

Getting Over Nutritionism
To escape the Western diet and the ideology of nutritionism, we have only to stop eating and thinking that way.
