Customer Reviews

Very Helpful!
I picked this book up in a cruise ship library and couldn't put it down. In fact at the end of the cruise I quickly scribbled down as much information out of the book as I could so I could have references pages until I could buy a copy. Coming off of a low carb diet I was specifically after good quality "carb" foods that I could start eating with out the fear of weight gain. Although I didn't pay much attention to the excercise topics that forwarded each section I really enjoyed all of the food information. There aren't really that many recipes in this book and the ones I've tried aren't exactly delicious. But the amount of information on specific foods and ideas on how to work them into a normal diet with ease was extensive. I would reccommend this book to anyone on a quest to just eat and feel healthier.

Great Book for Improving Your Diet
Several months ago I purchased this book along with "Joy Bauer's Food Cures" and "What Color is Your Diet" by David Heber. I found that "SuperFoods HealthStyle" was by far the best choice of the three. It is well organized, gave clear information about the benefits (or drawbacks) of various foods, and gave suggestions that made it easy to incorporate the desired foods in my diet. The book also includes other, non dietary, information (such as exercise) to improve your health. If you, like myself, have an interest in improving your diet, "SuperFoods HealthStyle" will give you the resources to make numerous positive changes. This book has changed my diet, and therefore my life, for the better.

WONDERFUL
This is a GREAT book! Simple ways to use REAL foods (not just supplements) to use on a regular basis to get and keep oneself and family healthy!
There are even a few recipes and plenty of ideas. My fussy, I hate it if it's healthy husband will even eat many of these foods and those he won't ,
there are ways to disguise these foods w/in other foods =+)
Very much a book I would recommend to all.
