Summary: This book has made a real difference in my family's life
Comment: I was never much of a cook, but I have always been interested in getting my family to eat healthy foods, and this book has shown me how easy it is to do just that. The 14 foods listed as "Superfoods" are delicious, and the authors include numerous "sidekicks," or foods that offer the same or similar benefits. After just one month of preparing foods using the recommendations in "SuperFoods Rx," everyone in my family has experienced significant health benefits--my husband's cholesterol level plummeted, and lifelong digestive problems have disappeared. Best of all, everyone from ages six to fifty LOVE the meals (one favorite is a stew I invented that contains turkey, carrots, cabbage, canned tomatoes, beans, spinach, onions, cubes of firm tofu and/or whatever else is on hand; I use Goya "cubitos" and seasoning for a delicious broth). Nobody wants sugar cookies anymore, now that we can go to the fridge anytime and enjoy luscious cultured yogurt with blueberries and diced walnuts, fresh watermelon--even some yummy dark chocolate with a pot of green or black tea. The possibilities are endless!!
Diets do not work--they are temporary, often based on absurd principles, and only perpetuate an unhealthy obsession with food. As the authors point out, what is needed is a permanent change for the better in eating habits for the entire family. Considering the obesity crisis in this country, such a sensible and practical approach could not come at a better time.

Summary: SuperFoods for any life style
Comment: This book certainly caught my attention, and kept it.
Although, this book is not meant to be an end all diet, it does support and encourage the use of specific foods for preventative health issues. The discussion on synergy of nutrients alone had me convinced.
Dr. Pratt does state that these foods improve the over all health of people who add them to thier diets on a regular basis. An alchoholic for instance, will still significantly benefit from the use of superfoods even if he/she chooses to continue drinking as long as he/she is consistant in consuming superfoods. Of course, superfoods alone is not enough. Quitting and excersise will improve his/her health even more.
I have scheduled these superfoods into my diet as soon as I started reading the book. My brain function improved almost immediatly and my eyesight sharpened by the time I got to the chapter on Tomatoes.
I am making this book a favorite gift to give my friends and family.

Summary: Fantastic book - highly recommended!
Comment: I love this book. It's easy to read, not something you have to wade through, and it gives simple and tasty recipes and suggestions so that you can start incorporating these foods into your diet easily and quickly. Dr. Pratt makes it so simple to improve your health without a lot of effort. I'm really happy I found this book, and I'm recommending it to all my friends.
