About the Author
Brook was born in 1955, in Cleveland, Ohio. Brook stands 5'9" and weighs a healthy 185 lbs. He is living proof of the lifestyle he advocates.
Brook earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Florida Atlantic University in 1982. He was a licensed paramedic and surgery technician. He has been certified in polarity and bio-magnetic therapies, and has practiced reflexology and massage for over 20 years.
Brook is proof that you can change your lifestyle for the better. At age thirty Brook weighed almost 300 lbs. He suffered from diverticulitis, a bleeding ulcer, and severe arthritis (to name a few). At the direction of Dr. Michael Klaper M.D., Brook began a strict, but delicious, vegetarian (vegan) diet. His change of lifestyle including exercise, fasting, herbs, sunshine, and clean water, soon cured his health problems and caused him to lose over 100 lbs. in weight. He has since helped thousands of other people to change their lifestyles, and to feel better.
Brook worked over a decade with non-profit organizations learning nutrition, and how to prepare healthy delicious foods. He worked several years in Maui's world famous "Vegan Restaurant" , and has traveled the world doing seminars, teaching, catering and giving cooking demonstrations. He has cooked for politicians, movie stars, and even the King of Tonga! He has also produced several health expo's, and Meatout campaigns, and has organized many events to feed school children and the homeless.
Brook lectures internationally, and has appeared on many radio and television shows, where he discusses nutritional therapy, herbal healing, and sometimes, even cooks on the air! He has authored "The Gentle Persuasion Cookbook", which teaches how to make Seitan (wheat meat), and "The Really Real Foods Cookbook", a tasty array of low-fat gourmet recipes. His newest cookbook "New Favorites" featuring re-designed recipes is now available.
In his leisure time, Brook likes to scuba dive and snorkel, hike, kayak, sing, and go to flea markets and yard sales.

Making Vegan Foods Exciting,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: New Favorites: Re-Designed Recipes for Your Health (Paperback)
Brook Katz realizes that Tofu on it's own is boring so he has created recipes to add taste and spice to vegan dishes. Not everything is for me but in some cases, he has given me an opportunity to create some of my own variations. It is an exciting book, graphically well illustrated, and should be a "Must," for anyone considering turning "Vegetarian!"
