From the Inside Flap

The SuperFoodsRx approach to weight loss is super simple: Consume high-quality SuperNutrient SuperFoods every day, and weight loss can be automatic.

Blockbuster best-selling SuperFoodsRx identified a variety of SuperFoods that could change your life, preventing disease and significantly improving your health. Delicious favorites such as blueberries, walnuts, salmon, and turkey were proven to increase energy and longevity. Now the authors provide an even more remarkable discovery--these same scrumptious foods can effectively and immediately promote weight loss.

Groundbreaking research has shown the secret lies in the power of SuperNutrients and their synergy. When the nutrients in these foods are combined, their effects on the body amplify--accelerating weight loss.

In The SuperFoodsRx Diet, the authors present a cutting-edge diet that provides you with everything you need to reach your optimal weight. You will understand, for example, how vitamin C in oranges has a powerful ability to break down fat; how new evidence suggests that green and black teas have thermogenic properties that increase metabolism, enhance fat burning, and decrease the tendency to store fat; and how the probiotics in yogurt enhance gastrointestinal health and aid you in metabolizing calories.

The SuperFoodsRx Diet presents a full diet program with simple and totally flexible meal plans, easy and delicious recipes, and countless tips and strategies that you will need to reach your weight-loss goal and achieve your greatest weight loss success. By following this remarkable advice, you can finally have the body you've always wanted--the safe and healthy way. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST book on Nutrition I have ever read! January 10, 2008
By M. Lee
Format:Hardcover
The original SuperFoodsRx was a guideline for me that helped me loose over 100lbs. I highly recommend this book as a guide to get and stay healthy. It changed the way I looked at food and this book simplifies eating even more. I read this new book in two days and it completely reinforced everything I had read in the original SuperFoods Book. Preparing meals has become a game to me to see how many super foods I can get into each dish. My morning oatmeal is now made with soymilk, walnuts, berries and soy protein powder. If I can manage to eat and stay healthy for almost four years anyone can! I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn to be healthy and give up fast food.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent information, but a little confusing February 5, 2008
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is packed with wonderful information on eating healthy. There is so much information in here! Don't expect to pick it up and get a grasp on it right away. It takes a few read-throughs to grasp all the information. I have a biomedical background, and it was a bit challenging to put together my 'slim-down' menu for the week. I found myself flipping back and forth between chapters trying to find out how much of which Category to add to what meal. I'm glad I did, though, because the food is delicious! Don't believe the reviews that say the recipes are no good. Yesterday I made the turkey-pumpkin chili - YUM! Amazon had the best price for this book, so grab one now!

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed January 12, 2009
Format:Hardcover
I suppose if you are new to the whole superfoods theory this might be an okay start. However, I've read too many other good authors' works to have gone through this book and not say anything. The information is dated, at times misleading and inaccurate. I have three of this authors' Superfoods books. I should have bought only one prior to the other two. If you want to truly educate yourself, start with "The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth" by Jonny Bowden, then try "seasonal food" by Susannah Blake, "The Food Substitutions Bible" by David Joachim and "the new whole foods encyclopedia" by Rebecca Wood.
