Metablic Man

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Has anyone read, " Metabolic Man: Ten Thousand Years from Eden "

written by Heizer Wharton? It was mentioned on the Lee

radio show by the representive of the Price-Pottenger Foundation. I

tried to get this book through my library interloan. The only place

they could find it was the Library of Congress and they don't loan

books. I did find it at Amazon.com. See comments from there below.

Brief review:

Metabolic Man: Ten Thousand Years From Eden: The Long Search For A

Personal Nutrition From Our Forest Origins To The Supermarkets Of

Today by nutrition expert and retired academician Heizer

Wharton is a detailed, college-level study of human nutrition from

the perspective of an ecologist. From the origin of human beings with

a hunter/gatherer system of food gathering and consumption practices,

to achieving the best nutrition from today's complex, market-heavy

and artificially flavored world of foods and beverages, Ten Thousand

Years From Eden is as practical for modern readers as it is amazing

for everyone with an interest in the history of the human diet. Ten

Thousand Years From Eden is a unique and highly recommended addition

to students of nutrition, human evolution, human ecology, and

contemporary food habits in a post-industrial age.

Sounds very interesting, don't you agree? I would like to know if

anyone else has read this book, and if so, what they thought of it.

Thanks.

Sheila
