Summary: Doctor's Advice
Comment: As a Doctor and a Nutritionist, I recommend this book to my patients. It gives a great basic overview of healthy living, which is very medically sound. It then goes into health benefits of different foods. I don't own many lay books on health, but this one is a must.

Summary: Extremely useful guide to the food-health connection.
Comment: The first thing that impressed me about this book was how immediately useful it is. The minute I opened it I felt as if my eating habits were getting healthier. Turn to any page and start reading and, unless you are already a nutrition expert, you will, within seconds, have enhanced your understanding of the relationship between health and food. Reading this book not only made me a better eater-it made me a better food shopper and enhanced my abilities in the kitchen. Organized like many books of its kind, with sections on the overall connection between diet and health, the particular nutrients, the health properties of individual foods, and preventing and treating specific ailments through diet, this Smart Guide contains nothing but relevant, up-to-the-minute information. It explains the scientific basis behind the nutritional issues without being overly technical, and the engaging writing is free of extraneous motivational psychobabble and New Agey preaching. Also, it includes a hundred, or so, brief sidebars, some with Web URL's and phone numbers, each conveying detailed, relevant information about one aspect of the food-health connection.
