Language: English. Brand new Book. We are told to drink at least 2 liters of water a day (or half gallon, 90-125 ounces, or 8 glasses of 8 ounces) in order to stay hydrated. Is there any scientific evidence for this advice? What about the water contained in the other foods and drinks that we consume throughout the day? That doesn't count towards hydration?Is it so much safer, "pure", "pristine", "natural", "premium" or "alkaline" the bottled water than the tap water to justify its price, or is just a smart campaign leaded by the bottled-water industry? After all, bottled water costs about five times more than the US national average price for milk, about six times more the US national average for gasoline and 10,000 more than tap water!). Technically speaking, we could be 10 thousand times richer, just by drinking the same tap water used in all the restaurants, bars, cafeterias, hospitals or prisons (and even by ourselves at home), in order to prepare the food. And why water - a natural resource that should be freely available for all forms of life - would need advertising in the first place?Also, when we're shopping for our favorite food, we encounter countless items that hold within them the keys to our nutritional health and well-being. Products are labeled as "light", "organic", "natural", "non-GMO", "zero- 'calories', '-fat', '-sugar' and so on, while on the back of the packaging we see a rectangular display of words, numbers and percentages (the Nutrition Facts/Information panel), that provides us with "facts" instead of claims. Yet, how the DVIs or RDIs were calculated, why the '2,000 Calories' value is used as general nutrition advice and how many Calories we should "eat" in the first place? Or how many we should "burn""And on top, we hear every day about a new diet (whether it is based on pasta, cabbage, rice, vinegar or grapefruit, it's in "The Zone", comes from "South Beach", it's based on "Protein Power", is a "Win to Eat" or a "Two Day" diet) and everyone has at least a friend or a family member who knows for sure which "carbs" are "good" and which one "bad," or tries to pursue us to become vegans, "beegans," "flexitarians," "pescatarians" or vegetarians (lacto- or ovo-lacto). Is there a perfect diet" How the macro-nutrients (protein, carbohydrates and fat) are absorbed in our body and what's their influence upon our overall health? This book tries to shed a light upon the above topics, among many others regarding daily nutrition, water intake and the impact of our lifestyle and dietary choices upon our own body and our Blue Planet.
