Hi all,
I just saw that there was a book called, "Food Additives, A Shopper's Guide to What's Safe and What's Not." This was the second edition that was mentioned.
Think author's name was Christine Harlow, or was it Barlow?? Drat!
Anyway, I just wanted to know if anyone had read it or heard anything about it, primarily to find out if it contains anything we've not already talked about in this group at some time of another.
I wonder how it's set up, and what it covers??? Hmm.
Yours, Luce
Has anyone read this book on food additives?

Complete info for us--the consumer--
She has other books on health---some are--

The only info I have is

Hahahaha...I KNOW it's no joke...when I was on my strict low carb diet, I went to Trader Joe's and found wonderful low carb candy bars...well, I was so hungry for chocolate, I ate 2 (they were small)...but....barely made it home, if you know what I mean....wow...that was a tough lesson about sorbitol !
