One of the world's leading scientists of food and nutrition reveals why so much of the current advice about food and nutrition is dangerously inaccurate, misleading and often downright wrong.
Tim Spector is a professor of genetic epidemiology at King's College London and honorary consultant physician at Guy's and St Thomas' hospitals. He is a multi-award-winning expert in personalised medicine and the gut microbiome, and the author of five books, including the bestsellers Spoon-Fed and The Diet Myth. He appears regularly on TV, radio and podcasts around the world, and is one of the top 100 most cited scientists in the world. He is co-founder of the personalised nutrition company ZOE and leads the world's biggest citizen science health project, the ZOE Health study. He was awarded an OBE in 2020 for his work fighting Covid-19.
The nutrition revolution is well underway and Tim Spector is one of
the visionaries leading the way. His writing is illuminating and so
incredibly timely.

Will actually help you decide what to add to your next grocery
shop... This is one of the clearest and most accessible short
nutrition books I have read: refreshingly open-minded, deeply
informative and free of faddish diet rules.
*Guardian*
Dispelling decades of misinformation...Spoon-Fed is a fascinating
read.
*The Times*
A remarkable book... It's a smoothie-dropping read.
*The Times*
Spoon-Fed is the gastro-science literature flavour of the
month.
*Sunday Times*
There is much to savour in Spector's breezy demolition of the
claims of both the greedy food corporations and the joyless "food
police".
*Evening Standard*
Sacred cows fall thick and fast in this slim but densely packed
volume... A clarion call for change... This book should be
available on prescription.
*Literary Review*
A hugely enjoyable and critical look at common food myths... A
worthy successor to his previous best seller, The Diet Myth.
*Michael Mosley*
The bestselling author of The Diet Myth, Tim Spector has built a
reputation as a culinary demystifier. In his latest, Spoon-Fed...he
dishes up a...correction to the nonsense routinely peddled by
self-appointed diet gurus.
