Passionate, personal diet manifesto that offers dilligent instruction...A well-done, rare treat for the health-conscious reader. -- The Boox Review

From the Author

I coined the acronym "NMP" to describe my healthy eating style (it stands for "no meat or poultry", but unlike vegetarian diets, includes fish), and its emphasis on converting favorite comfort foods we all grew up on and like to eat out, into more healthful meatless forms. The problem with many healthy eating styles is that they feature foods and recipes that just aren’t the kinds of things most of us would normally look to eat. And when that’s the case, you don’t stick with them.

Eating more of a plant-based diet, is being pointed to over and over by leading health authorities as a great way to lose weight, maintain good health or lessen the severity of disease when it does strike. Yet, many people refuse to consider reducing their consumption of meat and poultry on even a part-time basis. That’s because the image most of us have of someone who goes meatless usually does not include eating cheeseburgers, buffalo wings, chicken caesar salad, BLTs and chicken parmesan. With "Have Your Cheeseburger And Keep Your Health Too!" that mindset will change as people realize that virtually anything you want to eat has a delicious, more healthful, non-meat/poultry version.

"Have Your Cheeseburger And Keep Your Health Too!" will build your confidence by helping you successfully deal with social situations, friends and family, eating out and grocery shopping for your new "NMP" lifestyle—whether you go "NMP" full-time or from time-to-time. Included are 30 easy and delicious "NMP" recipes and the Fallback Methods (they even include "cheat" time) I created and used in making this healthful transition myself. Also unique is the information which helps everyone best avoid hidden dangers in foods that seem healthy, but are not due to trans-fats, agricultural chemicals, GMOs (genetically modified organisms) and irradiation.
