This review is from: Leslie Beck's 10 Steps to Healthy Eating: How to Boost Energy, Manage Weight, and Prevent Disease with Food, Diet and Nutr (Paperback)
One of my interests is health so I often read books about health. One book I just read is called "10 Steps to Healthy Eating" by Leslie Beck. I enjoyed it (but I am a health guy so like stuff like this). It reinforces everything I already know and what my mother always said.I liked the sections on how much protein, etc I should eat. The book reinforces the need for exercise. It also has a lot of recipes but since I do not eat red meat and don't even eat chicken at home, many were not for me. I eat well at home but I only eat at home a few times per week so my challenge is healthy eating on the road. I am not big on supplements so I liked that she did not push that too much. I prefer food to pills. Her steps (but you have to read the book to get the real sense of them all). 1 - get ready 2 - eat enough protein (I likely am deficient here) 3 - Choose the right carbohydrate 4 - eat more fruits and vegetables 5 - choose healthier fats and oils 6 - boost vitamins and minerals (this was the one I will not totally follow) 7 - eat more often 8 - Don't forget about fluids 9 - Control your weight 10 - Be active every day
