Real Food Matters

What if everything you've been told about food was designed to keep you sick, tired, and dependent?

Real Food Matters is not another diet book. It's a powerful exposé of the lies behind modern food systems and a call to reclaim your health before it's too late.

Blending deeply personal experience with sharp investigative insight, Scott Pettifer exposes how sugar, ultra-processed foods, industry-funded science, and misguided dietary advice have created a global crisis of poor health and environmental destruction. From gut health to food inequality, from artificial sweeteners to agricultural collapse this book breaks it all down, clearly and without compromise.

With chapters on everything from the sugar industry's coverups to the role of fats, prebiotics, meat alternatives, and the silent collapse of our food culture, Real Food Matters will change the way you think about what's on your plate and what it costs to get it there.

This is a book for anyone tired of feeling confused, bloated, exhausted, or lied to. It won't sell you a plan. It will give you the truth.
