Deep Nutrition
Why Your Genes Need Traditional Food
Book • 2017
In *Deep Nutrition*, Dr. Catherine Shanahan examines diets from around the world, such as the Mediterranean, Okinawa, and 'Blue Zone' diets, to identify four common nutritional habits that have been developed over millennia.
These habits—fresh food, fermented and sprouted foods, meat cooked on the bone, and organ meats—form the basis of what Dr. Shanahan calls 'The Human Diet.
' The book explains how these traditional foods can improve mood, eliminate cravings, boost fertility, sharpen cognition, eliminate allergies and diseases, build stronger bones and joints, and improve skin health.
It also delves into the connection between diet and gene health, showing how food can alter DNA and affect future generations.
