Alternative Diets: 288 (Issues Series) - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

One of the biggest issues facing our society is the challenge of achieving a healthy diet that is sustainable, but also provides us with optimum nutrition. Many people in the UK, and globally, believe that flexitarianism is the answer eating less meat and more vegetables. Some believe that going gluten-free is the solution, although others are sceptical of what could be classed as a fad with no real health benefits. This book explores alternative diets, considering the implications for those with chronic illnesses, the sustainability of meat-free diets and more. The information inside comes from a variety of sources, including newspapers, magazines, government reports and charity groups; providing different perspectives on challenging topics. At the end of the book is a selection of activities that will encourage interaction, literacy, critical thinking and independent research. Content is accessible and engaging, tailored primarily towards the 14 to 18 age group.
