In his bestselling book Food for Thought, Dr Vernon Coleman gives simple guidelines for healthy eating, provides the scientific evidence proving that meat causes cancer, offers easy to follow slimming tips and lists 101 superfoods that can improve your health. (Dr Coleman was warning about the link between meat and cancer in the early 1990s.) Dr Coleman also explains which foods are associated with cancer and other diseases. Food for Thought has sold over 45,000 copies in the UK alone. Advertisements for Food for Thought were banned in the UK because authorities thought that the scientific information it contains (there are, for example) over two dozen references to research proving that meat causes cancer) were likely to damage the meat industry.
