Metabolical: The Truth About Processed Food and How It Poisons People and the Planet, authored by the esteemed Dr. Robert Lustig, is an eye-opening investigation into the dangers of the modern food landscape.
This groundbreaking book reveals the unsettling truth that a staggering 62% of supermarket items fall into the category of ultra-processed foods, which are intricately designed to fuel dependency and drive health issues. Dr. Lustig, celebrated for his NY Times bestseller FAT CHANCE, meticulously details how our addiction to these processed items is not merely a personal failing but rather a consequence of systemic issues within the food industry and government policies.
In Metabolical, you will discover:
A vital read for anyone concerned about their well-being, Metabolical not only uncovers the severe ramifications of contemporary dietary habits but also equips readers with the knowledge and tools to transform their nutrition. As Dr. David Perlmutter, author of Grain Brain, insightfully states, this book illustrates the profound link between our food choices and health outcomes.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
