Product Description
Teenagers eating habits keep fast-food restaurants flourishing but do little to keep the kids themselves in shape and healthy. Fueling the Teen Machine addresses this problem by presenting teens with the latest information on a wide range of food topics. Using a nonpreachy approach the authors, both registered dietitians, cover everything from carbohydrates and vitamins to eating disorders and vegetarianism, along with the ultimate new frontier for busy teens: cooking it yourself!
