Ben uncovers the seven root causes keeping Americans sick — from sugar addiction and portion distortion to toxic seed oils, junk-filled school lunches, and fake convenience foods. You’ll also learn how Japan’s food philosophy, respect for nourishment, and real convenience culture protect them from the same fate.
