I admit it. I have food issues. You can give up vices like drinking and smoking but how do you give up food when it is a problem for you? The truth is that you can't. If you struggle with eating healthy then this book is for you. There are thousands of books out there about diets but few that focus on actual nutrition and REAL healthy eating. We all know a few things about healthy eating like cutting back on sweets but after reading this book I realized there is much that I don't know. The author begins the book with two real case studies from her nutrition practice. I found those stories motivational and it made me eager to read the rest of the book. The Table Of Contents includes: Introduction Healthy Eating And Nutritional Myths The Basics Of A Healthy Diet Make It Easy To Eat Healthy Quick Meal Prep Tips Tips To Get Kids Eating Healthy Meals Save Money While Eating Healthy Put Variety Into Your Meals Healthy Eating For Special Diets Six Week Quick Start Guide Appendix A: Food Safety Appendix B: Pathogens That Cause Foodborne Illness Appendix C: Stock Recipes Appendix D: Easy Healthy Meals and Snack Recipes Appendix E: Mix & Match – Meal Planning Success Appendix F: Low Sodium Spice Mixes Appendix G: Spice/Food Combinations Appendix H: Low Fat Gravies and Sauces Appendix I: Oven Roasted Vegetables Appendix J: Leaner Cuts of Beats This book will shatter many of the myths of healthy and not so healthy eating and includes a six week quick start guide that gives you lots of small, healthy changes you can make every week. The author, Gretchen Scalpi, is a RD, CDN, CDE and Certified Wellcoach®. She owns a private nutritional consulting practice. She is a contributing diabetes expert for EverdayHealth.com and the author of “The Everything Guide to Managing and Reversing Pre-Diabetes: Your complete plan for preventing the onset of Diabetes“, “The Everything Diabetes Cookbook, 2nd ed.,” “Pre-Diabetes Your Second Chance At Health E-Book“, “Pre-Diabetes Your Second Chance At Health Presentation” and the “Virtual Grocery Store Tour". I recommend this book for anyone who wants to learn more about healthy eating but doesn't want to go on some crazy diet that doesn't work. This book would be a great pick as a gift for you adults who need to know more about a healthy diet and for anyone who has food issues. The appendices alone make the book worth what you pay for it. You can purchase it at Amazon.com.
