From the early days of humankind to today, steady technological advances have greatly changed the landscape of farming. In the United States in particular, these changes have in turn impacted the scope of food production-and often not in a positive way. In The Poisoning of Americans, author Jacob Silver presents an in-depth, investigative expose into the production of Americans' food and how it is responsible for the failing health of US citizens.

The Poisoning of Americans gives an overview of the fundamentals of humans and the food they consume, as well as the essential nutrients they need and how those relate to health. It discusses the production of beef, poultry, and pork and the effects of the use of antibiotics and hormones. It addresses the consequences of the ubiquitous presence of corn in many areas of food and food production and the harmful results of this practice.

Though the essays address the flaws in the food production system, they also provide recommendations and ideas to help restore the natural state of American agriculture and help to produce healthier citizens.
