The Real Food Revolution Résumé

The Real Food Revolution: Healthy Eating, Green Groceries, and the Return of the American Family Farm Tim Ryan

For most of history, Americans have lived close to the land, their food was accessed locally and they processed it in their own kitchens. But as the US population and economy boomed in the last century, they industrialized their food system - with food coming far from home and processed multiple times. And it has taken a toll: America is now faced with polluted soil and unsustainable practices, as well as increasing health problems. The country is faced with historic levels of heart disease, stroke, diabetes and other causes of preventable death. The Real Food Revolution by Congressman Tim Ryan is a manifesto for a new food movement- the family farm, 21st-century style. In it, readers will find information on: -The history and current state of our food systems -Myriad negative impacts of our present food practices on our health and our planet -Pros and cons of the current US farm bill and what changes could help restore our nation -How people can get involved, with actionable steps at the end of each chapter

The Real Food Revolution Avis

Congressman Tim Ryan isn't afraid to take on a challenge, and he's gearing up for one of America's biggest-our health. In The Real Food Revolution, he delivers a straightforward and much-needed prescription to help transform our country's food systems and improve our well-being.
-President Bill Clinton

In The Real Food Revolution, Congressman Tim Ryan not only puts a spotlight on everything wrong with our current food system, he also lays out a bold but realistic plan to give every American access to fresh, whole foods, and gives specific steps we all can take to join the food revolution that is happening now across America.
-Arianna Huffington, editor-in-chief of the Huffington Post and author of Thrive

It's wonderful that Congressman Tim Ryan cares about the way food affects the health of Americans. I just wish more members of Congress cared about these issues, too.
-Marion Nestle, professor of nutrition, food studies, and public health at New York University and author of Food Politics

As someone who's been on the frontlines of medicine, I've seen the health of our population take a negative turn-and one of the key reasons for this is our less-than-optimal food supply. That's why The Real Food Revolution is so important. It gives you the background to understand what's wrong and concrete things you can do to fix the problem. It's time to take back our health and Congressman Ryan is leading the way.
-Andrew Weil, M.D., New York Times best-selling author of True Food and Spontaneous Happiness

Congressman Tim Ryan reminds us of the old Irish saying, 'Is this a private fight, or can anyone get in?' He wants all of America-through our shopping, gardening, advocacy, and voting-to force a better farm bill, a more responsible food industry, and better diets and health for all of us.
-United States Senator Sherrod Brown, member of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry

The Real Food Revolution addresses the most significant problem we face today. We are what we eat, and what we eat is being tampered with in a gigantic way. Our very survival is at stake, but we finally have a courageous voice in the halls of congress who is willing to say 'enough is enough' and offer constructive ways to avert a potential disaster if we fail to act now. I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to read this book and take action.
-Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, New York Times best-selling author of I Can See Clearly Now and The Power of Intention

The Real Food Revolution is a big breath of fresh air and common sense. Its message is urgent and accurate. And written in plain English by a very courageous congressman. Read it.
-Christiane Northrup, M.D., ob/gyn, physician, and author of the New York Times bestsellers Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom and The Wisdom of Menopause
