Eat well today for a healthier tomorrow! With proper nutrition, we can actually bolster our immune system—and, as these 100 recipes prove, it’s not only easy to do, it’s also delicious. Here are foods rich in important vitamins, such as A, B complex, C, and E; in minerals, including zinc, selenium, and calcium; in Omega-3 and -6 fatty acids; and in protein and fiber. For each choice, there’s a tasty recipe, and information on its beneficial nutrients. Enjoy a sweet potato summer salad (with lots of betacarotene); cholesterol-lowering guacamole; broccoli stir-fry (a potential cancer-fighter); and a tasty blueberry smoothie. An ailment directory makes it simple to locate the right food for any problem.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Not many surprises, but a good overview,
This review is from: The Top 100 Immunity Boosters: 100 Recipes to Keep Your Immune System Fighting Fit (The Top 100 Recipes Series) (Paperback)
I would have liked more in-depth info on these immunity boosters. Instead, this book has a brief overview of the items chosen plus a recipe for incorporating it into your diet.
Not surprisingly, most of the foods are various fruits & veggies, but some herbs, meat and fish, and yogurt are included, too. The 100 are also not listed by importance or in any heirarchy, either, and I think that would have been helpful, at least for me. They are categorized by type, and I found cauliflower included with green leafy vegetables, which I found surprising. I do like the ailment directory in the back of the book, though. You can look up what's "ailing" you and get suggestions and specific foods to add to your diet for that specific ailment.

It is a great book if you are interested in the components of each food that is listed here.
I'd like the book to have more specifics on which type of flavonoids the food has but other than that it is really great. I really recommend it for people that is trying to figure out what is right to eat..
