How can it be that even with all the advances modern healthcare has made, we're
experiencing record levels of ill health - from diabetes, heart disease and cancer, to osteoporosis, dementia and
depression? We're more health conscious than ever before, and no matter which way we turn we're bombarded with
promises of the best thing for living longer and healthier lives. But the truth is, the messages are flawed and if we
follow them, we won't achieve the good health we long for. Something, somewhere, has gone horribly wrong. At last,
cutting through the misinformation, The Health Delusion has the answers, all backed by hard science. It exposes the
shocking truths behind our diet, health and pharmaceutical industries - and how they consistently put our health in
jeopardy in favour of boosting their profits, as well as showing how the media makes things even worse by misleading us
at every turn. So how can we put things right? Providing a complete 21st-century guide to optimal health at every stage
of life, The Health Delusion gives us the real story, and offers us a detailed plan of the foods, supplements and
lifestyle changes needed for total wellness.

Some time ago I came across "Bad Science" by Ben
Goldacre. A jaw dropping expose on causation vs correlation in scientific research and a crash course in understanding
how such research gets appropriated to fulfill a particular agenda, whether it's selling drugs, filling column
inches or simply justifying yet more psuedo science.

With The Health Delusion, Aidan Goggins and Glen Matten
have picked up the guantlet and decided to take the healthcare, diet and pharmaceutical industries to task. But
it's not enough to shine a light, the authors come armed with a wealth of information that actually makes a
difference. Like Ben Goldacre, both Aidan and Glen come from an academic background. Their biggest gripe is that the
most compelling information out there seems to be ignored, misinterpreted or simply passed by. In the introduction,
there sense of frustration at the current state of affairs is palpable.

"Despite all the mind-bending
advancements of modern medicine, a stark fact remains: If you are a healthy adult in today's sociey, you're in
the minority. Does that really sound like the definition of a healthy society to you?"

At the conclusion
of The Health Delusion, the authors state that what they have on offer is not complicated, in fact, it's really
simple. But before we get back to basics we can take a journey through the headlines, fads, psuedo science and big
pharma/food companies that got us here.

The Health Delusion makes it's case very early on. Despite all
the advances in modern healthcare, despite the wealth of information at our fingertips we are struggling. Struggling
with the diseases of what Dr Robert Lustig calls the "industrial global diet". But it is not just one thing,
we are in the midst of a perfect storm with the food and pharmaceutical industries conspiring to keep us consumming at
the cost of our health.

Globally, the diet industry is worth around $150 billion. As The Health Delusion
highlights "Clearly the profits are not performance related!"

The beauty of this book is the
perfect mix of science and common sense. Each chapter includes notes in the form "science blasts" information
boxes and a summary. Whilst it's easy to read section by section, it is also ideal to dip in to the areas that
interest you most.

Chapter one lays out the agenda. We are bombarded with information on health and diet,
most of which is edited to fill column inches by self proclaimed gurus and experts. The Health Delusion offers some
insight on how research is conducted and how it can be manipulated. All of this in an effort to look beyond the
headlines and apply some critical thinking.

Part 2 looks at the holy grail of supplements, antioxidents. Pill
munchers beware, some of what is on offer migh make you choke. This chapter is filled with "Doh!" moments.
More is not better. And we don't escape the irony that it is the most health concious who are the supplement
industries best customers.

The next section is a "what's what "of natural protection. A
reminder of Michael Pollans appeal for us to"Eat food, not too much, mostly plants". Again, the science and
the summary make the choices clear.

Next we move on to the big S. Selenium, it's role in immune
function, cancer prevention and overall health care. As with all things in the Health Delusion, they are quick to point
out the schism between the headlines and the research.Next up, Vitamin D, whose benefits have been heralded across the
media this year. Once again, we get the real science behind the headlines and some startling information about
D-deficient "sun smart" dermatologists and the catch 22 of too little or too much sun.

Part
3's Diet Discrepencies looks at the short term success and long term failure popular diets. This has been a common
topic amongst a number of my friends recently. Seems each week there is a new quick fix on the block. Diet Discrepencies
has much to say on the long term metabolic effects of novel dieting. We move on to physical activity. It is heartening
to see the prescription for movement given equal headline status. It is not just about the
obvious benefits in terms of metabolism. Their is a boatload of evidence out there that simply getting more movement in
your day provides physical and mental benefits. If in doubt check out The 100 Rep Challenge for a daily fix.

We continue with a look at fat, the issues with BMI as an indicator (Wladimir Klitschko has a BMI of 28, you can tell
him he's overweight) and the admonition to "get active or pay the price".

Milk, Beef and Plant
based diets get the Delusion treatment in section four. Again, amidst the Paleo, Juicing, Raw Food evangelists, there
will be much wringing of hands. But none of what the Health Delusion suggests requires a particular dogma, a special
t-shirt or a funky pair of barefoot running shoes to be implemented. And this is at the core of much of what is on
offer. A kind of science based common sense that seems to have been largley ignored because it doesn't come in a
shiney wrapper.

Part V is devoted to developmental growth. You are what your mother ate. The effects of
pre-natal diet appear to have a profound effect on the long term health of offspring. Whilst the ubiquitous Folic Acid
gets mentioned there are a host of other considerations that we seem to be missing out on.

Failing Fats looks
at just how much misinformation has spread regarding fat intake. It would seem that the entire food industry has shaped
us to their design. Somewhere along the way they succeeded in getting everyone else to go along for the ride. The very
organisations and institutions that we rely on to look out for our best interests seem as disastrously misinformed as
the rest of us. Brain health and the effects of food on our moods is covered with a look at the benefits of EPA
supplementation.

Finally, Prescription Junkies looks at the culture of medicate
now worry about it later. With big pharma trying to control every aspect of health care from preventitive to paleative
we are discouraged at every turn from taking matters in to our own hands, made to feel awkward for asking questions
about our health care and expected to simply follow the prescription. The Health Delusion
makes it clear that our most pressing issues cannot be solved with a pen and a presciption pad. Our health lies in our
diet and our lifestyle. Simple as that.

Health Delusion delights in asking difficult questions and then
answering them. The information notes through out are engaging, each chapter concludes with recommendations. For those
who are interested a complete reference list of accompanying research is included.


A myth-busting
goldmine of information on what has gone so horribly wrong with our collective health - and how we can put it right.
