What this book covers

Dr. Mark Hyman—No. 1 New York Times bestselling author—guides readers through the often conflicting diet debates. He sorts through the noise surrounding pegan, paleo, ketogenic, and vegan approaches to reveal which foods truly support weight management and long-term wellness. You’ll discover why porridge might not be the ideal breakfast for everyone, when a Mediterranean pattern can promote health, and why the idea that milk builds bones or that eggs are “bad” isn’t so simple. WTF Should I Eat? explains, in plain language, what to choose and why, with a functional medicine lens that connects everyday food choices to overall health and resilience. The book also examines how food systems and policies affect both personal nutrition and the environment, empowering you to make wiser decisions at the grocery store and beyond.

What you’ll learn and how it helps

This guide delves into every major food group, offering practical insights you can apply to real life.
