Title: Eat, Drink, and Be Healthy: The Harvard Medical School Guide to Healthy Eating 

Author: Walter C. Willett, P. J. Skerrett, Maureen Callahan

A nutrition expert from the esteemed Harvard Medical School presents a detailed regimen for healthy eating that readers can adopt for a lifetime, not just until the next big thing comes along. Dispelling many of the popular theories about nutrition that lead to foolish extremes, the book promotes a more balanced approach to eating, addresses the shortcomings of the misleading and yet ubiquitous USDA food pyramid, and questions the authenticity of "nutritional white noise" that inundates our consumer culture.
