"If you are overwhelmed by conflicting diet advice, or you don't know where to start or who to trust, Beyond Labels will help you figure out what to put on your plate. Joel Salatin, a farmer who is blazing the trail for regenerative farm practices, and Sina McCullough, a Ph.D. in Nutrition who actually understands unpronounceable carbon chains, bring you on a journey from generally unhealthy food and farming to an ultimately healing place. Through compelling discussions and humor, they share practical and easily doable tips including: what to eat, how to find it and prepare it, how to save money and time in the kitchen, and how to stay true to your principles in our modern culture. Whether you are just starting your health journey or you grow all of your own food, this book is designed to meet you where you are and motivate you to take the next step in your healing journey - ultimately bringing you closer to health, happiness, and freedom." -- Back cover
