Data Scientist Mark Trudeau, left, of Rochester Hills, Mich. and Podiatrist Dr. Sadegh Arab of Oakland Township, Mich. co-authored "There's a Food For That," the first book that uses data science methodologies to identify and rank the top 100 foods to fight the top 100 diseases and conditions in America. The duo spent five years analyzing over 60,000 medical studies.

Backed by five years of rigorous medical research and data science methodologies to identify and rank the top 100 foods that fight the top 100 diseases, the book provides targeted dietary recommendations to help readers prevent and manage common health issues like diabetes, hypertension, allergies, and more.
Trudeau and Arab, both passionate about preventative health, drew from over 60,000 published medical studies to mathematically compile and identify the top 100 diseases and conditions in America. A data science team cleaned the medical data and analyzed studies related to foods associated with these health issues. From the data, top 10 foods for each disease or condition were identified using statistical calculations. If a food was recommended in at least 90% of the studies, they were classified as a “Golden Bullet,” indicating a strong benefit consensus. Remaining foods in the top 10 were labeled as a “Silver Bullet.”
“The journey to ‘There’s a Food for That’ began when I received negative blood test results,” explained Trudeau. “The doctor advised me to ‘eat more fruits and vegetables,’ and ‘avoid fast food.’ While avoiding fast food was straightforward, I was left wondering which specific fruits and vegetables I should consume. I took matters into my own hands using my data science background to marry foods to diseases through a data-led approach.”
With a 30-year career optimizing manufacturing processes, developing algorithms, and conducting medical device research, Trudeau viewed his book as a data science project. Trudeau, who was part of a team that developed the concept of Six Sigma Black Belt process improvement in the early 1990s, applied his learnings in data science and formulas to identify then rank the top 100 foods and diseases.
"There's a Food for That" breaks down complex health data into actionable advice, making it easier for people to make informed dietary choices. It not only focuses on disease management but also emphasizes the role of nutrition in prevention. The book avoids vague advice like "eat more vegetables" and instead offers specific guidance, such as consuming almonds for gout or salmon for heart disease, based on data-driven research.
Besides food recommendations, the book features chapters on serving sizes, nutrient values, and references to the top medical studies, ensuring readers understand not just what to eat but why.
