Description
A food-choice toolkit and recipe book perfect for fans of the Low Tox Life podcast, Cornersmith, Anna Jones, War on Waste, Matthew Evans.
What are the best foods to put in your shopping basket for your health and for the planet? Is it necessary to cut out meat, almonds and go organic? Who can afford it anyway?
Bestselling author of Low Tox Life and 'ultimate gentle activist' Alexx Stuart clears a path through the rules so stridently laid down by proponents of particular diets. She turns the tables on a supermarket system that is geared strongly against our health and the environment, and points to the how rather than the what. Because questioning how your food is grown is the key to unlocking dependence on a broken food system and to finding easy and delicious answers to that daily conundrum: what's for dinner?
Low Tox Life Food is packed with inspiration and stories from regenerative farmers, checklists for what to ask about the produce you buy, ways to afford better choices, as well as 80 of Alexx's most requested recipes for budget-friendly, easily adaptable meals without waste.
If you want to feel more certain and more hopeful about the future of food and our planet, this book is for you.

The book is educational and balanced and provides a background on conventional agriculture and food processing, along with emerging techniques being used to counter some of the planet's biggest problems, like deforestation, soil health, and restoring healthy water systems. The book also provides a checklist and lots of healthy and yummy looking recipes included (I've yet to try some but will update my review afterwards). The book certainly helps in making a different through food choices, both what we buy and how we eat. Thanks to NetGalley and Murdoch books for an advance copy of this book.
I absolutely adore this book! Not only is the format easy to follow and the photos and illustrations beautiful but the content itself is incredibly insightful!
This book take a holistic approach to food, considering not only what we're eating, but how it was grown and the impact our choices as consumers make on the planet. Over the last several years I have developed an interest in learning more about regenerative farming/agriculture since beginning my health and sustainability journey and this book was perfect for giving me all I needed to know about it.
I highly recommend this book to everyone! Great recipes, great tips and hacks and most of all an excellent resource on how to nourish our bodies and look after our planet.
