Jane Brody's Good food book

Description:

From the Personal Health columnist of The New York Times comes a new classic on nutrition and fitness, a book that will surely change the way America eats. Four countless readers, the best-selling Jane Brody's Nutrition Book became their "bible," a treasure-trove of sensible information on the basics of healthy eating in which Jane Brody demonstrated that our diet should lean more heavily on complex carbohydrates -- starchy foods such as potatoes, rice, pasta, beans, and bread -- than it now does. This new book, designed as a companion volume to the first, provides the full story of these heath-promoting carbohydrates and shows you how to put such a diet to work for you. Written with authority and humor, it is a practical, useful guide to eating and cooking sensibly that will help you to relinquish old, unhealthy food habits gradually and to substitute enjoyable and healthful new ones. - Jacket flap.
