This review is from: Nutrition Logic: Food First, Supplements Second (Paperback)
This book reads like stereo instructions and left me bored and annoyed. I had wanted a no nonsense nutrition book to help me know what the "right" foods are, beyond lean meats, veggies, fruits and grains like everyone talks about. I needed some other options, normal things that normal people can cook. This book talked about supplements as well, and I feel more confused than ever after reading that section. Suffice it to say, this book is now collecting dust on the shelf before I sring clean and give it to Goodwill.
