Lots of great info on the healthiest foods and their benefits. As my children get older and smarter they constantly challenge my commitment to healthy family meals. In this war in which I am outnumbered 4 (and sometimes 5) to 1, it's nice to have this resource that I can pull out and quote from. I didn't quite finish the book because I lost it. I found it a few days later in my 10-year-old son's room! Every evening we talk about what he's read.

This book is about how you can eat well and get fit with food, mentally and physically. It could also be used to educate yourself to make better choices about what you choose to eat and how you should split up the meals. It is written by two nutritionalists. The writing is brief and factual but not dry. The layout is nice and has lots of photos. There is a list of the 100 most nutritious foods. Has some recipes at the end.

I usually don't keep my books around. But this one is a keeper. It is broken down in so many ways. It also has a great sampling of recipes in the back. The only drawback is the nutrition count is not there. So I'll have to do some math before I try the recipes. But it does explain in English so many of the symptoms we have and how to eat them away!

A great book to learn about healthy food and how food affects the body. It was great to read why certain foods are good for the body and why some are not. Definitely a book to revisit often.

It was a really good, informative book. It didn't diverge into old-wives tales, but stayed with the facts for that time in which it was written. The only reason I don't give it five stars is because it was short. The info was useful, but brief.

I picked this book up a few months ago and found it interesting. It explains how different foods and their nutrients effect our bodies. Interesting and imformative.

Mostly good nutritional science with cups of common sense, scattered liberally with advice you can use. Plus recipes.
