The ultimate myth-busting nutrition bible.

Registered dietitians Rosie Saunt and Helen West are the founders of The Rooted Project, set up to translate the latest research direct to your plate, and make evidence-based nutrition accessible and engaging.

In this book, they explore everything from the danger of anecdotal evidence and unsubstantiated 'facts' about food to the real science behind the nutrients we consume every day. They explain why there's nothing to be feared from fat or carbs, or - for the vast majority of us - the much-maligned gluten, as well as probing the murky depths of the diet industry to explore the latest links between diet culture and weight stigma. They take a deep-dive into gut health, look at the emerging science of the connection between food and mood and examine differences between allergies and intolerances.

This book is both a reference guide and a narrative to relish: it debunks the myths that dominate the food and wellness industry and offers the right tools and knowledge to allow readers to take control of their own health. Evidence-based, body positive and practical, Is Butter a Carb? is the modern must-have nutrition book for everybody interested in food, health and pop science.

Rosie Saunt ditched her career in the fashion industry for a new start as a Registered Dietitian, and now works both for the NHS and as a freelance consultant. She is particularly passionate about creatively curating, ethical and evidence-based science communication. Helen West has 10 years clinical experience as a Registered Dietitian. She works as a freelance dietitian and has a special interest in eating disorders, non diet approaches to health and weight stigma. Together, as co-founders of The Rooted Project, Rosie and Helen organise events on the science of nutrition including collaborations with the LEON, the British Heart Foundation, Stylist Live, Elle, Fare Healthy and the Wilderness Festival, just to name a few. They also drive thought provoking discussions surrounding popular nutrition topics through social media and publications in mainstream press.
