This review is from: The Antioxidant Save-Your-Life Cookbook: 150 Nutritious and Delicious High-Fiber, Low-Fat Recipes to Protect Yourself Against the Damaging Effects of Free Radicals (Paperback)

I was really disappointed in this book. I bought it specifically for the High-Fiber recipes and it fails to tell you how much fiber is in each recipe. It gives fat content,but not fiber content. In the books title it say 150 Nutritious, High-Fiber, Low Fat Recipes, yet doesn't include the fiber content in any of the recipes. I'd like to keep track of my daily fiber intake, but I can't do so using this book. So for my purposes this book is useless.
