Product Description
This accessible and science-based reference guide is both an educational text and a source of inspiration for the millions of people who want to know more about the connection between food and health. In a clear and focused style, the authors take us beyond nutritional facts, sharing cutting-edge clinical discoveries on what and how foods stimulate the body's natural ability to rejuvenate and heal. They advise readers on designing a safe diet by exploring such current programs as The Zone Diet and Atkins; discuss the roles that fibre, enzymes, fatty acids and other dietary components have in helping us to live healthily; offer over views of important food groups and tips on preparing them; and provide food prescriptions for a wide variety of ailments.
This is a comprehensive, accesible, fascinating and uniquely effective owner's manual on what to feed the 'vessel of the soul' that guides readers to a greater understanding of diet and health.

This is a very comprehensive and addictive book on foods and their nutritional content. The amount of information was overwhelming and as the book is so thick, I doubt if I will ever read it all. And a superb price from Amazon to boot, costing a lot more at my local bookshop. Highly recommended!

If you are really interested in nutrition you will constantly dip into this book. Very informative but very thick and I will probably never read all of it. very good value

I bought this book to do a college assignment. I found it very good in providing a fairly thorough starting point. It provides a description as well as history and case studies of the food so more scientific than your average off the shelf book. I think a good reference for students in nutrition as well as for those general interest in healing foods.
