In this fascinating, refreshingly clarifying book about food, food myths, and how sloppy science perpetuates misconceptions about food, a medical doctor on his way to a conference gets drawn into conversations that answer the following questions:

Does vitamin C prevent the common cold? And if it works, why does it only work in Canadian soldiers, ultramarathon runners, and skiers?
Was red meat really declared a carcinogen by the WHO? Does that mean I should become a vegetarian? And who decides what gets labeled as red meat and white meat?
Is salt really not that bad for you and did a group of researchers really want to experiment on prisoners to prove the point?
Does coffee cause cancer or heart attacks? Why did a California court say coffee needed a warning label?
Is red wine really good for your heart, and what makes the French Paradox such a paradox?
Why did the New England Journal of Medicine link eating chocolate with winning a Nobel Prize?
Why were eggs once bad for you but now good for you again? Does that mean I don’t need to worry about cholesterol?
Should I be taking vitamin D?

“In a masterful way, Dr. Chris Labos takes us on a fascinating journey of discovery about the machinations of the scientific world. Chris doesn’t tell us what to think but how to think. And that is the essence of science! Tell everyone you know to run, not walk, to get a copy of Does Coffee Cause Cancer?” — Dr. Joe Schwarcz, Director, McGill University’s Office for Science and Society
