Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The discovery of vitamins changed our world dramatically. Terrifying diseases such as scurvy, which had claimed the lives of millions, became preventable and curable. But before long word of these miracles had spread from the laboratory and into the hands of food marketers. Decades of over-hyped advertising later and weve accepted as fact the idea that dietary chemicals can be used as shortcuts to improving our health. Award-winning journalist Catherine Price goes in search of the truth about vitamins, taking us to vitamin manufacturers, food laboratories and military testing kitchens. In this page-turning investigation of the history, science and future of nutrition, she reveals just how much we still dont know about vitamins the way they work in our bodies and the amounts we really need.
