Recenzii


"This little book not only helps guide me to the best foods to eat but it also gives suggestions on how to shop for and prepare them... This little book is one of my new best friends. I plan to bring it along with me to the grocery store- Change is possible.... Sometimes we just need a little help!"
— Rose Vining, Net Galley Reviewer

"This is a concise and hype free approach to making the best choices in food. Rather than getting all hung up on what we shouldn’t eat, this is a great way of making food all about the positives. With a page per foodstuff, this is a quick way of ensuring you’re choosing the best in class every time."
— L Grant, Net Galley Reviewer

From the Introduction:

So What is a Superfood?

Some foods are simply more nutritious, better for you, more packed with the good stuff. These are the superfoods. And if we all ate more of those foods, we’d be healthier, happier and, very probably, wealthier and wiser too.

Healthier because our bodies absolutely need protein, minerals, vitamins, good carbohydrates and fats, antioxidants and much, much more to function optimally.

Happier because the brain needs all that good stuff too, especially the good fats and vitamins.

Wealthier because we won’t be spending heaps of money on either:
Bulk junk food that leaves you literally starving for vitamins and minerals, locked into a cycle of overeating to try to give your body what it craves and needs.
Bottles of expensive supplements; it’s well known that generally our bodies absorb far more nutrients from real, whole foods than from anything in a capsule.

Wiser because of that better functioning brain and because we all know for sure that over-processed foods and junk foods dull the mind, as well as the body!
