Summary A Conversation about Healthy Eating brings together all the relevant science about healthy eating in one place, and it's exactly that - a conversation. This in-depth analysis leads to the simple conclusion that the specifics of what you eat don't actually matter; staying lean and healthy simply requires avoiding the over-consumption of processed foods. While that is, of course, easier said than done, science also provides clear recommendations for how you can adapt your environment and lifestyle to make it possible.
