Download or read book Come mierda written by Julio Basulto and published by VERGARA. This book was released on 2022-03-03 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El libro más descarnado de Julio Basulto. «Una brújula para evitar el mareo en este mar confuso de oferta despiadada de malos alimentos, de falsas creencias y mucho aficionado.» Dra. María Neira, directora de Salud Pública de la OMS Mientras que la comida contaminada mata en toda la región europea a unas 5.000 personas al año, la chatarra comestible provoca anualmente, solo por enfermedades cardiovasculares, 2,1 millones de fallecimientos. ¿Te imaginas cuántos kilos de ultraprocesados consumimos al año? Ante una tragedia de tal magnitud, Julio Basulto justifica que si la palabra «mierda» se define como «cosa mal hecha o de mala calidad» (según la Real Academia Española de la Lengua), los comestibles de mala calidad nutricional debemos incluirlos también en dicho concepto. Come mierda aborda, por tanto, el gran tema alimentario de nuestros días. Explica la diferencia entre alimentos seguros e inocuos, nos empodera, desarma los tentáculos con que la Big Food promueve ambientes alimentarios que generan obesidad y enfermedades crónicas y demuestra que cuidarnos no significa solo comer mejor sino, sobre todo, dejar de comer peor. Reseñas: « Come mierda es un libro para que la población deje de comer lo que, según nos muestra Julio, come en demasiadas ocasiones.» Dra. María Neira, directora del Departamento de Salud Pública de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (@DrMariaNeira) «Comemos mierda, sí, y lo sabemos, pero Julio Basulto nos ofrece todos los datos y estudios científicos necesarios para que sepamos de forma fehaciente el por qué. Julio nos explica cómo, bajo una falsa sensación de seguridad, las multinacionales llevan años vendiendo productos malsanos, con la connivencia de las autoridades y nuestro desconocimiento. Habrá un antes y un después en tu forma de alimentarte cuando leas este libro.» Patricia Fernández de Lis, redactora jefa de Ciencia en El País (@pflis) «Pasión. Pasión es lo que hay en cada página de este libro. Pasión serena de un nutricionista no solo por la alimentación saludable o por la responsabilidad social. También pasión por la información contrastada y por los datos basados en la evidencia científica. Una pasión que, por aplastante, a veces resulta incómoda, pero que es necesaria para avanzar hacia una sociedad más sana, crítica y sostenible.» Carles Mesa, director del programa «No es un día cualquiera» en Radio Nacional de España (@CarlesMesa) «Todo lo que ha escrito Julio Basulto es de una calidad y utilidad enormes, que se sustenta en su impecable documentación científica, en su independencia, en su honestidad... y en una narración magnífica. Pero créanme, este libro es de imprescindible lectura en el momento actual del planeta y la sociedad. Con el mismo rigor de sus obras anteriores, nos muestra la magnitud de la "intoxicación" alimentaria, cómo identificarla y cómo combatirla. Leerlo, informarse bien y actuar es absolutamente urgente. Gracias Julio, por dar este importante paso a favor de la salud.» Dra. Clotilde Vázquez, jefa del Departamento de Endocrinología y Nutrición de la Fundación Jiménez Díaz (@VazquezDoctora) «Basulto desgrana en cada página los estudios que prueban que el consumo de ultraprocesados está generando una sociedad con mayor obesidad, menor esperanza de vida y más probabilidades de desarrollar enfermedades como el cáncer o la diabetes. Comemos mierda, pero creemos que "la vida es un suspiro" que lo merece: después de leer este libro te replantearás lo que te llevas a la boca con esa excusa y, más aún, aquello con lo que alimentamos a la infancia.» Clara Jiménez Cruz cofundadora y CEO de Maldita.es (@cjimenezcruz)

This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El libro más descarnado de Julio Basulto. «Una brújula para evitar el mareo en este mar confuso de oferta despiadada de malos alimentos, de falsas creencias y mucho aficionado». —Dra. MARIA NEIRA, directora de Salud Pública de la OMS Mientras que la comida contaminada mata en toda la región europea a unas 5.000 personas al año, la chatarra comestible provoca anualmente, solo por enfermedades cardiovasculares, 2,1 millones de fallecimientos. ¿Te imaginas cuántos kilos de ultraprocesados consumimos al año?

Explica la diferencia entre alimentos seguros e inocuos, nos empodera, desarma los tentáculos con que la Big Food promueve ambientes alimentarios que generan obesidad y enfermedades crónicas y demuestra que cuidarnos no significa solo comer mejor sino, sobre todo, dejar de comer peor. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Julio Basulto's most blunt book yet: a condemnation of the overwhelming consequences of unhealthy foods on our overall health. While contaminated food kills around 5,000 people a year all over Europe, edible junk causes 2.1 million deaths annually, due to cardiovascular diseases alone. Can you imagine how many pounds of ultra-processed foods we consume each year? Faced with a tragedy of such magnitude, Julio Basulto justifies that if the word "shit" is defined as "something poorly done or of poor quality" (according to the Royal Spanish Academy of Language), foodstuffs of poor nutritional quality must also be included in said concept. Eat Shit addresses the great issue that is food of our days. It explains the difference between safe and harmless food, empowers us, deactivates the tentacles with which Big Food promotes food environments that generate obesity and chronic diseases, and shows that taking care of ourselves does not only mean eating better but, above all, stop eating so poorly.

Book excerpt: In The 8-Hour Diet, a New York Times bestseller in hardcover, authors David Zinczenko and Peter Moore present a paradigm-shifting plan that allows readers to eat anything they want, as much as they want—and still strip away 20, 40, 60 pounds, or more. Stunning new research shows readers can lose remarkable amounts of weight eating as much as they want of any food they want—as long as they eat within a set 8-hour time period. Zinczenko and Moore demonstrate how simply observing this timed-eating strategy just 3 days a week will reset a dieter's metabolism so that he or she can enter fat-burning mode first thing in the morning—and stay there all day long. And by focusing on 8 critical, nutrient-rich Powerfoods, readers will not only lose weight, but also protect themselves from Alzheimer's, heart disease, even the common cold. In the book, readers will find motivating strategies, delicious recipes, and an 8-minute workout routine to maximize calorie burn. The 8-Hour Diet promises to strip away unwanted pounds and give readers the focus and willpower they need to reach all of their goals for weight loss and life.

Book Qu   Puedes Esperar Cuando Est  s Esperando

Download or read book Qu Puedes Esperar Cuando Est s Esperando written by Heidi Murkoff and published by Workman Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03-15 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta traducción al español del libro considerado como la biblia del embarazo en Norteamérica con más 19 millones de copias impresas, What to Expect When You’re Expecting: 4th Edition, es más vital, menos formal y más sencilla de entender de manera general que cualquier otra anterior. Es un libro dirigido a padres que esperan un bebé y quienes no dominan el inglés o quienes, en un momento de estrés como este, prefieren lo que les resulta más familiar – su primer idioma. Está repleto de información actualizada no sólo sobre lo nuevo que se sabe sobre el embarazo, pero también sobre los temas que son relevantes para las embarazadas. Heidi Murkoff ha respondido decenas de nuevas preguntas e incluido nuevos materiales requeridos por los lectores, como, por ejemplo, una sección detallada en todos los capítulos sobre cada mes del embarazo sobre el desarrollo fetal en cada una de las semanas de este, un capítulo expandido sobre la pre-concepción y uno completamente nuevo sobre embarazos múltiples. Siendo más completa, reconfortante y empática que todas las anteriores, esta edición incorpora nuevos descubrimientos en obstetricia y toca diferentes tendencias actuales (desde el tatuaje y otras modificaciones corporales hasta el Botox y la aromaterapia). Hay mucho más que antes sobre temas prácticos (incluyendo una sección aumentada sobre cuestiones relacionadas con el sitio laboral), físicos (con más síntomas y soluciones para estos), emocionales (más consejos sobre cómo navegar la montaña rusa emocional), nutricionales (desde la dieta baja en carbohidratos hasta la vegana y desde la comida chatarra hasta la adicción a la cafeína) y sexuales (lo que es excitante y lo que no lo es al hacer el amor durante el embarazo), así como mucho más apoyo para ese muy importante socio en la maternidad: el papá. Con derroche de consejos útiles y humor (el mejor amigo de una mujer embarazada), esta nueva edición es más asequible y fácil de usar que en el pasado. Es todo lo que los padres esperan de Que puedes esperar . . . durante el embarazo, pero mucho mejor. This Spanish-language translation of What to Expect When You're Expecting: 4th Edition, America's pregnancy bible with over 19 million copies in print, is livelier, less formal, and altogether more user-friendly than ever before. It’s a book for expectant parents who don’t speak English or who, at a stressful time, find that what's most familiar—their first language—is most welcome. It's filled with up-to-date information reflecting not only what's new in pregnancy but what's relevant to pregnant women. Heidi Murkoff has answered dozens of new questions and included loads of new asked-for material, such as a detailed week-by-week fetal development section in each of the monthly chapters, an expanded chapter on pre-conception, and a brand-new one on carrying multiples. More comprehensive, reassuring, and empathetic than ever, this edition incorporates recent developments in obstetrics and addresses current lifestyle trends (from tattooing and belly piercing to Botox and aromatherapy). There's more than ever on pregnancy matters practical (including an expanded section on workplace concerns), physical (with more symptoms, more solutions), emotional (more advice on riding the mood roller coaster), nutritional (from low-carb to vegan, from junk food–dependent to caffeine-addicted), and sexual (what's hot and what's not in pregnant lovemaking), as well as much more support for that very important partner in parenting, the dad-to-be. Overflowing with tips, helpful hints, and humor (a pregnant woman's best friend), this new edition is more accessible and easier to use than ever before. It's everything parents-to-be have come to expect from What to Expect . . . only better.

Book The Phenomenology of Mind

    Book Details:
  • Author : Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
  • Publisher : Library of Alexandria
  • Release : 2020-09-28
  • ISBN : 1465592725
  • Pages : 910 pages

Download or read book The Phenomenology of Mind written by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 910 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the case of a philosophical work it seems not only superfluous, but, in view of the nature of philosophy, even inappropriate and misleading to begin, as writers usually do in a preface, by explaining the end the author had in mind, the circumstances which gave rise to the work, and the relation in which the writer takes it to stand to other treatises on the same subject, written by his predecessors or his contemporaries. For whatever it might be suitable to state about philosophy in a preface - say, an historical sketch of the main drift and point of view, the general content and results, a string of desultory assertions and assurances about the truth - this cannot be accepted as the form and manner in which to expound philosophical truth. Moreover, because philosophy has its being essentially in the element of that universality which encloses the particular within it, the end or final result seems, in the case of philosophy more than in that of other sciences, to have absolutely expressed the complete fact itself in its very nature; contrasted with that the mere process of bringing it to light would seem, properly speaking, to have no essential significance. On the other hand, in the general idea of e.g. anatomy - the knowledge of the parts of the body regarded as lifeless - we are quite sure we do not possess the objective concrete fact, the actual content of the science, but must, over and above, be concerned with particulars. Further, in the case of such a collection of items of knowledge, which has no real right to the name of science, any talk about purpose and suchlike generalities is not commonly very different from the descriptive and superficial way in which the contents of the science these nerves and muscles, etc.-are themselves spoken of. In philosophy, on the other hand, it would at once be felt incongruous were such a method made use of and yet shown by philosophy itself to be incapable of grasping the truth. In the same way too, by determining the relation which a philosophical work professes to have to other treatises on the same subject, an extraneous interest is introduced, and obscurity is thrown over the point at issue in the knowledge of the truth. The more the ordinary mind takes the opposition between true and false to be fixed, the more is it accustomed to expect either agreement or contradiction with a given philosophical system, and only to see reason for the one or the other in any explanatory statement concerning such a system. It does not conceive the diversity of philosophical systems as the progressive evolution of truth; rather, it sees only contradiction in that variety. The bud disappears when the blossom breaks through, and we might say that the former is refuted by the latter; in the same way when the fruit comes, the blossom may be explained to be a false form of the plant’s existence, for the fruit appears as its true nature in place of the blossom. These stages are not merely differentiated; they supplant one another as being incompatible with one another. But the ceaseless activity of their own inherent nature makes them at the same time moments of an organic unity, where they not merely do not contradict one another, but where one is as necessary as the other; and this equal necessity of all moments constitutes alone and thereby the life of the whole. But contradiction as between philosophical systems is not wont to be conceived in this way; on the other hand, the mind perceiving the contradiction does not commonly know how to relieve it or keep it free from its onesidedness, and to recognize in what seems conflicting and inherently antagonistic the presence of mutually necessary moments.
