Fake Foods by
When we're hungry, we are often more concerned with quashing the hunger than the quality of what we're eating. This book looks at processed food, which might have started as whole, healthy foods, but are now milled, coated or mixed with salt and preservatives, and fried or cooked. Oftentimes this processed food is cleverly packed as wholesome, even when it isn't. Readers will learn how fake food ingredients can contribute to obesity, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease. Fake foods have also been linked to stomach and colon cancers, and to high blood sugar levels. The book provides suggestions for real food choices, creating a regime of breakfasts, lunches, and dinners that are healthy and satisfying.
Mystery Meat by
The hot dog is just one of the mystery meats that despite new nutritional label regulations remains a puzzler. This engaging book provides the disgusting story of the kinds of byproducts and fillers that are often used in mystery meats. Readers learn about harmful ingredients including fat, salt, chemical preservatives, and even bacteria. Readers find out about artery-clogging trans fats and cholesterol, and about the salt overload, preservatives, and food dyes that are common ingredients. While reading the truthful story, students also learn the health effects, including weight gain, diabetes, heart disease, and increased risks for certain cancers. They'll come away with an understanding of why healthier food choices and eating habits are imperative when considering mystery meats.
