5.0 out of 5 stars Need to improve your eating habits? This is the book for you!, May 26, 2008
By Gracejoy "gracejoy7" (New York, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This book is divided into three distinct sections. The first provides a basic introduction to nutrition and healthy eating, with lots of practical tips and advice. The second describes some of the most commonly available "superfoods"--foods that have exceptional health value and are easy to incorporate into your diet. Fruits, vegetables, meats, grains, and fats are all represented, and there is a particular emphasis on foods that regular blood sugar (so it is especially helpful for those wanting to lose weight and/or treat or prevent diabetes). The third section offers easy recipes that feature these foods as starring ingredients, as well as some meal plan ideas to get you started.

PROS:
--The book is written and designed primarily for people who are "beginners" at healthy eating, so it is easy to read and practical.
--Many of the recipes are "remakes" of standard American fare, so this is a great book for you if you want to eat more healthily while still eating familiar, comfortable food.
-- With many vivid photographs and a colorful, dynamic layout, this book has immediate eye-appeal and is fun to flip through.
--The book is appropriate for everyone, but if you're trying to lose weight and/or control diabetes, it will be especially useful.

CAVEATS:
--If you already know a lot about nutrition, you may find the book a bit too simplistic. (Consider George Mateljan's "The World's Healthiest Foods" instead.)
--If you are interested in the recipes only, and not the nutritional info, then this book may not be worth the money. The recipes are good, but similar recipes can be found in most standard "healthy" cookbooks.

OVERALL: A well-designed and useful book, especially for those making a real lifestyle change to healthy eating for the first time. Fun to browse.

5.0 out of 5 stars MAGIC FOODS; SIMPLE CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE TO SUPERCHARGE YOUR ENERGY......, April 9, 2008
By skinner spice (LOUISVILLE, KY) - See all my reviews
Excellent. Illustrations show how to reduce calories by making simple adjustments to your eating habits. It is excellent for diabetics. The information and recipes include the GL (Glycemic Load) on foods and for diabetics this is important. There is also a chart showing the GL of basic foods. I would suggest that all diabetics purchase a copy. It is well worth the coast (paper copy). I plan to purchase additional copies for a few friends that need help in controling their
blood sugars.
