„We are what we eat!“<br />
A phrase that for most merely sounds like a harmless appeal to<br />
a sensible approach to food ... Once you’ve read Hans-Ulrich<br />
Grimm, it sounds both scary and threatening: For many years<br />
the uncoverer and bestselling author has made it his mission to<br />
warn consumers against the dangers of the food industry.<br />
For his new book, Guaranteed Hazardous to <strong>You</strong>r<br />
Health: How the Sugar Mafia Makes Us Ill, Grimm<br />
describes the enormous health risks from too much sugar<br />
consumption and targets the “Sugar Mafia”, an ominous<br />
network of industry, a practice of subsidies, influenced<br />
politicians, paid-for research and lobbyism.<br />
Since its release in March, the book sold more than 40.000<br />
copies and has now been on the<br />
bestseller list<br />
continuously for 7 weeks (4 of which in the Top Ten).<br />
The total number of Grimm copies published in Germany<br />
amounts to more than 750.000 copies; translation rights<br />
have been sold to France, Italy, Czech Republic, Poland,<br />
Hungary, Latvia, Russia, Korea, China and Japan.
Allergies, Behavioural Disorders<br />
and Alzheimer’s Disease:<br />
Additives may ruin one’s health<br />
Where does the taste come from in ready-to-serve meals?<br />
<strong>What</strong> puts the colour in sweets? We have all heard of additives<br />
such as glutamate and aspartame.<br />
But what does all this really mean, and what is behind E 965, E<br />
650 and all the other contents referred to in the smallprint? It is<br />
clear that the wonderful world of chemistry is not only a danger<br />
to the heart and the brain – it may even be fatal.<br />
This standard work on chemicals in one’s food is an<br />
encyclopaedia of food additives and their dangers, especially to<br />
highrisk groups.<br />
Extremely helpful required reading for anyone who wishes to<br />
know what it is he eats.<br />
A Grimm “classic” on food additives, but now in a<br />
completely revised new edition<br />

Dr. Hans-Ulrich Grimm<br />
is an author and journalist. His year-long research in<br />
the world of industrialized foodstuffs resulted in his<br />
emptying his kitchen of all the products<br />
manufactured by Nestle, Knorr, etc, in favour of fresh<br />
goods from the markets and farmers.<br />
This taught him that good food and health belong<br />
together.<br />
