5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Guidebook for Anti-Aging Cooking, March 18, 2003

By A Customer

I bought this book because of its intriguing title and appealing cover. I'm sure glad I did. I'm beginning to execute Chef/Nutritionist Forberg's suggestions into my daily life. Not only are her recipes delicious, I feel more energetic---and its only been a few weeks.

Who needs botox when berries, beans, greens, fish and other scrumptious natural foods will do the trick!

5.0 out of 5 stars My New Way of Life, June 20, 2004

By A Customer

I am a fitness professional, and last May I attended a lecture at UCLA on anti-aging foods taught by the author. I loved everything she talked about and immediately ordered her book from Amazon. For the last month I have eaten mainly the foods she extolled (fruits, veggies, nuts, olive oil, fish, soy) and have made many of the recipes in the book. I have never felt better!In fact,I am planning on giving this book to all my training clients for Christmas. Even my husband and teenage kids love most of the recipes. Every recipe has been absolutely delicious and fairly simple to make. You may need to go to a special market that sells organic or ethnic food to buy some of the ingredients rather than find everything at the supermarket, but it's worth it. My only complaint is that she didn't include more recipes using cocoa powder. It has the highest antioxidant rating, yet she features it in only 3 recipes--none of them dessert! I hope Cheryl does a second book. Atkins, shmatkins! This is the way to eat!
