For Everyone

This is a fantastic book that should be in every household. Its full of easily accessable, researched information that every person should read. It also comes with over a 100 great recipies.

absolutely the best!

This book is so incredible! It is chock full of well-researched yet easily understood nutrition information. And the recipes--well, they are to die for! I'm so glad to have a whole chapter on salmon recipes (since we're supposed to be eating it every week!). I have tried out many, many of these recipes and there hasn't been a single one I didn't like so far. And many of them have already become family favorites. At first I was a little disappointed because I thought the number of recipes was a little low, but now I see that the authors have simply left out the "filler" and included only the to-die for ones, so I don't have to waste my time. Worth every penny.

Absolutely the best health book ever!

My sister-in-law sent me this book and I have not been able to put it down since then. I have purchased several copies for my friends and relatives. I have just sent one out to my girlfriend in Calgary. This book is the "ultimate" -- all those questions you've had nagging at you for some time -- butter vs. margarine -- are eggs ok? -- how to read a label -- which fish has the most/best omega oils -- what vitamins should you take and what should you not take -- what is one serving of fruit, vegetables, etc? -- which nuts are good/best for you and how many? -- even which spices are good for you! Not to mention the interesting information about research results across the world. I love, love, love this book! It's fun to read and certainly is down to earth, easy to understand and straightforward!

very good information

I especially enjoyed the chapter about chocolate. The sections are informative and easy to understand. I'm trying some of the recipes because they sound good (and healthy).

The best nutritional advice

Double chocolate muffins are actually good for you! This recipe was worth the price of the book - I would recommend this book for everyone that cares about their health. There are wonderful healthy recipes that even the kids like.
