 THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF HEALING fOODS
Healing Foods? Isn't that ice cream, hot chocolate and apple pie? They always make me feel good....but alas, they are not good for me. The Encyclopedia of Healing Foods is in a very easy to read format that allows instant information to be at my finger tips. This novel of wisdom also tells how to select, store and serve the different foods as well as the health benefits and history and that is not something you can get in most of the other healing food books.

 Dissapointing - sloppy work
Example:
Page 237 solanines in sweet potatoes - not true
Wait for the next version, hopefully they will clean it up.
If you use it check other sources to confirm.

Most convincing book I've read!
I've read many nutrition books on my quest to find a better way of eating. This book gives a history, nutritional breakdown and the benefits of each and every fruit and vegetable! Once you read about how good each of these foods are for you, there is just no doubt that you MUST incorporate them in to your diet! (My husband didn't want to eat cabbage. So, I made a cabbage salad and when he said he didn't want it, I just opened the book and read how GOOD cabbage is for you. After hearing that, he said "give me a fork!") This book doesn't give you a lot of recipes, get another book for that. But this book is a MUST if you are on the fence about what to eat for your long term health.

 Healing Foods
I thought this book was going to be a lot bigger than it acutally is. I would recommend finding the larger size. This one is hard to read. But it arrived quicly and in new condition.

Informative little book!
I first ran into this book at Jamba Juice. I immediately knew I wanted it for someone close to me who is battling cancer.
This is a great resource to look up a product and learn more about it. It has almost every fruit, vegetable, vitamins...etc. available in stores. In fact, I haven't found one that isn't in the book yet.
It provides a bunch of tips for healthy eating. The book covers a brief overview, history, nutritional highlights, health benefits, how to select and store, tips for preparing, quick serving ideas, and safety on every single produce, vitamin...etc.
It's a great addition to any household and its user friendly!
