In his book, Diet for a Poisoned Planet, David Steinman has done what our government has not: he has compiled an incredibly vast amount of FDA and other research into a readily available format so that it can be made more accessible to the people. To paraphrase from the introduction, the author spent 5 years researching government studies on the safety of food in the US. Looking at tens of thousands of chemical analyses, he was able to identify the safest foods and water sources as well as those with the highest levels of toxins from pesticides and industrial wastes, a great many of which are carcinogens (cancer causing agents). Though some of this research is outdated (updated lists of dangerous food contents can be found from resources in the Appendixes), much of the information contained in this book is still highly relevant today. Of particular interest are chapters on food additives (including a glossary), irradiation, drinking water, pregnancy, baby foods, creating a nontoxic home, and detoxification. Throughout the book, the author categorizes the safety of foods, additives and chemicals in lists rated as green light (for highest safety), yellow light (somewhat safe), or red light (most dangerous). In addition to listing many helpful resources for safe foods, Steinman also includes his principle sources, and a glossary of pesticides and toxic chemicals found in foods. Other notable additions include lists of plant food combinations that make complete proteins, lists of foods richest in various vitamins and minerals, commonly found cancer-causing pesticides and their potency, and a section on radon. Overall, this book is worth its weight (and the weight of all its cumulative research) in gold, and I find myself referring to it frequently. Thank you, David Steinman!
