"Are there 'really' super foods and can we actually 'feel younger' when we eat them? Yes and YES!! I've been a leading expert in the nutrition and fitness industries since 1986 and I can tell you that this book is on to it. Use this info for just a few short days and you will begin to experience an energy and vitality you remember from years ago. Keep eating these foods and experience what it feels like to anti-age!!" - Donna Krech, Founder, ThinAndHealthy.com
Description:
From Almonds to Yogurt and Quinoa in between, here are 101 of the very best foods you can eat in order to live longer and look younger.
Discover these incredible superfoods:
* The common spice, available in any grocery store, that has antibacterial and antiviral properties and has more antioxidants than any other herb!
* The zero-calorie beverage that actually increases your metabolism and appears to fight against both cancer and aging.
* The gluten-free alternative to wheat that is loaded with protein, amino acids, and antioxidants.
* The "fun" fruit that has a powerful anti-inflammatory effect on the body and can lower the risk of heart disease and diabetes.
And 97 more!
You’ll likely meet some new friends on this list along with foods that may already be a part of your diet. But they all share at least one thing in common: superfoods are foods that can have a profound impact on your health, vitality, well-being and even your longevity.
This book isn’t intended to be a lengthy and dry reference book. Many of these foods are such SUPER foods that an entire book could be written about each one. Rather, the purpose is to provide a “pocket guide” that will familiarize you with the qualities of these superfoods as an encouragement to adding them to your daily meals.
Includes a shopping list that conveniently organizes the superfoods as you would find them while shopping. |

Click Here | Product Description: Used as a reference by students of acupuncture, Healing with Whole Foods is an invaluable guide to the theory and practice of Chinese medicine. With facts about green foods such as spirulina and blue-green algae and information about the "regeneration diets" used by cancer patients and arthritics, it is also an accessible primer on nutrition—and a inspiring cookbook with more than 300 mostly vegetarian, nutrient-packed recipes.
The information on Chinese medicine is useful for helping to diagnose health imbalances, especially nascent illnesses. It's smartly paired with the whole-foods program: because the Chinese have attributed various health-balancing properties to foods, you can tailor your diet to help alleviate symptoms of illness. For example, Chinese medicine dictates that someone with low energy and a pale complexion (a yin deficiency) would benefit from avoiding bitter foods and increasing "sweet" foods such as soy, black sesame seeds, parsnips, rice, and oats. (Note that the Chinese definition of sweet foods is much different from the American one!)
Pitchford says in his dedication that he hopes the reader finds "healing, awareness, and peace" by following his program. The diet is certainly ascetic by American standards (no alcohol, caffeine, white flour, fried foods, or sugar, and a minimum of eggs and dairy) but the reasons he gives for avoiding these "negative energy" foods are compelling. From the adrenal damage imparted by coffee to the immune dysfunction brought on by excess refined sugar, Pitchford spurs you to rethink every dietary choice and its ultimate influence on your health. Without being alarmist, he offers dietary tips for protecting yourself against the dangers of modern life, including neutralizing damage from water fluoridation. There's further reading on food combining, female health, heart disease, pregnancy, fasting, and weight loss. Overall, this is a wonderful book for anyone who's serious about strengthening his or her body from the inside out. |

Click Here | Product Description: We know whole grain breads are better for us, but will we actually eat them, much less take time to bake them?
Yes, says beloved baking instructor Peter Reinhart, but only if they are very, very good. So Reinhart, with his decades of experience crafting amazing artisanal breads, has made it his mission to create whole grain breads that are nothing short of incredible.
In this follow-up to his award-winning book The Bread Baker’s Apprentice, Reinhart offers groundbreaking methods for making whole grain breads that taste better than any you’ve ever had. And because his approach is also simpler and less labor intensive than conventional techniques, you’ll choose to make and eat these breads. His fifty-five recipes for whole grain sandwich, hearth, and specialty breads, plus bagels, crackers, and more, incorporate widely available whole wheat flour as well as other flours and grains such as rye, barley, steel-cut oats, cornmeal, and quinoa. Each is so rich with flavor and satisfying texture that white-flour counterparts pale in comparison.
Written in Reinhart’s famously clear style and accompanied by inspiring photographs, these recipes were perfected with the help of nearly 350 testers. Introductory chapters provide a tutorial, with step-by-step photographs, of the delayed fermentation method that is at the heart of these recipes, as well as a crash course in baking science, discussions of grains other than wheat, and more. Advanced bakers will relish Reinhart’s innovative techniques and exacting scientific explanations, and beginning bakers will rejoice in the ease of baking wholesome breads with such extraordinary flavor.
Peter Reinhart is a baking instructor and faculty member at Johnson and Wales University in Charlotte, North Carolina. He was the cofounder of Brother Juniper’s Bakery in Santa Rosa, California, and is the author of six books on bread baking, including Brother Juniper’s Bread Book, Crust and Crumb, and the 2002 James Beard Cookbook of the Year and IACP Cookbook of the Year, The Bread Baker’s Apprentice.
