Paperback. Etat : Good. A woman with hypertension refuses vegetables. A man with diabetes adds iron-fortified sugar to his coffee. As death rates from heart attacks, strokes, and diabetes in Latin America escalate, global health interventions increasingly emphasize nutrition, exercise, and weight loss - but much goes awry as ideas move from policy boardrooms and clinics into everyday life.

It is essential reading for anyone who cares about the politics of healthy eating.…
