The Wheel of Health: A Study of the Hunza People and the Keys to Health

“Why not research health, as well as disease?” The Hunza of northern Pakistan were famous for their extraordinary vitality and health. Dr Wrench argues that in part at least,this is because their food was not made ‘sophisticated’, by the artificial processes typically applied to modern processed food.
