Reader's Digest: Eating for Good Health
Health & Healing the natural way.
This book shows you how to assess every aspect of your present diet and demonstrates clearly what is desirable in that diet. ..and what is not. It explains what protein, fats, carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins, and minerals are, which foods are their main sources, what their functions are in your body, and how much of them you actually need in order to maintain optimum health.
EATING FOR GOOD HEALTH also surveys the best diets worldwide so that you can choose elements from them that suit your whole family or the preferences of individual members. It clarifies issues of food growing and process-ing-from organic methods and use of pesticides to fortifi-cation, irradiation, and adding of preservatives-so that you can make informed choices. And it tells you how to choose the freshest and most healthful foods, then store, prepare, and cook them to obtain the best nutritional value.
