Summary

"Vitamin C Myths" explores the truth behind common beliefs about this essential nutrient and its impact on immune health. The book dissects the science of ascorbic acid, examining its functions as an antioxidant and its role in collagen synthesis.

 
It challenges the widespread notion that high doses of vitamin C can prevent or cure the common cold, a belief often fueled by anecdotal evidence rather than rigorous clinical trials.

 
The book emphasizes an evidence-based approach to vitamin C, advocating for a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables over excessive supplementation.

 
It progresses by first establishing the scientific basics of vitamin C, then evaluating the evidence related to the common cold, and finally exploring vitamin C's broader health contexts.

 
By critically analyzing studies and meta-analyses, "Vitamin C Myths" provides readers with the tools to evaluate health claims and make informed decisions about their diet.

    From the revered author of the bestselling The Hidden Life of Dogs, a witty, engaging, life-affirming account of the joy, strength, and wisdom that comes with age. 
     
    Elizabeth Marshall Thomas has spent a lifetime observing the natural world, chronicling the customs of pre-contact hunter-gatherers and the secret lives of deer and dogs. In this book, the capstone of her long career, Thomas, now eighty-eight, turns her keen eye to her own life. The result is an account of growing old that is at once funny and charming and intimate and profound, both a memoir and a life-affirming map all of us may follow to embrace our later years with grace and dignity.  
    A charmingly intimate account and a broad look at the social and historical traditions related to aging, Growing Old explores a wide range of issues connected with growing older, from stereotypes of the elderly as burdensome to the methods of burial humans have used throughout history to how to deal with a concerned neighbor who assumes you’re buying cat food to eat for dinner.  
    Written with the wit of Nora Ephron’s I Feel Bad About My Neck and the lyrical beauty and serene wisdom of When Breath Becomes Air, Growing Old is an expansive and deeply personal paean to the beauty and the brevity of life that offers understanding for everyone, regardless of age.
