Nutritionist and Cordon Bleu trained chef Jane Clarke uses a particularly 'reader friendly' approach to providing information for the time stressed as to what they can eat to best fuel their bodies to life a hectic lifestyle. Included are savory recommendations for 10-minute emergency suppers and energy-boosting snacks; instructions on the healthiest ways to eat out in upscale, family, and fast-food restaurants; effective travel snacks; ideal lunches; and even 'late-night soothers'. "Best Foods For Busy People" also addresses such issues as using food to treat ailments ranging from head aches, hangovers, fatigue, bad complexions, and weight problems. Enhanced with "kitchen cook friendly" recipes, color photography, and such specialized advice as 'Bodyfoods Solutions for Preventing Cancer', 'Combating the Symptoms of Stress', and 'Bodyfoods Solutions for Mothers-To-Be', "Body Foods For Busy People' is highly informative and strongly recommended for non-specialist general readers with an interest in creating and maintaining good health for themselves and their loved ones.

I love this book! I found it to be a very helpful breakdown of how to eat well & enjoy the taste of food. My favorite page is about what to keep in your pantry at all times, so you have enough items to make a proper meal/snack. I reference it constantly before grocery shopping. It has a great selection of recipes, including some specific for migraines, pregnancy, & stress reduction. Along with having a beautiful layout and nice photography, this book helps breakdown what foods do for your body, how they can help your body and what to avoid that hurts your body...and what foods you just can't replace because it's simply not worth the lost in taste! (ie. margarine for butter)

Most of the recipes have ingredients that I don't even know what it is and some things a little weird for me but the information through out the book is so great. It gets me excited to eat more healthy and that is needed!
