This book outlines the theory and practice behind healthy eating:
- making the best food selections
- preparing and enjoying food
- understanding nutrition
- see how the science of food applies to real life
- discover what a "balanced" diet really means
- understand the wisdom behind the saying "you are what you eat"
This book is aimed at those people who would like to eat a healthy diet but have become confused about just what that means. The lesson is that healthy food need not be expensive or difficult to make, but rather should be cost-effective and tasty. "Fast food" needn't mean a deep-fried, vitamin-poor meal in a box from a chain outlet. Fresh fruit and vegetables are the original "fast foods"! And what could be faster to prepare than a great sandwich?
