From the Author
Additives and preservatives weaken the immune system. When the body must fight foreign invaders such as food chemicals, this naturally weakens the body's defense. We are seeing more allergies in children, arthritis in younger and younger people, osteoporosis is rampant, depression and anxiety are prevalent, and on and on. Can additives and preservatives in our foods have an impact on these problems? I firmly believe they can - and do.

Many of our food products tell us they are low fat or even fat free, yet they may be very high in fat. People who need to watch their fat intake are eating these products thinking they're eating lowfat, but in reality may be eating a great deal of fat.

I highly recommend The Food Bible, and I wouldn't consider any kitchen complete without a copy close at hand.

Customer Reviews

Helps one select whole foods that are free of preservatives.
It wonderful! It's great to take with you when you go shopping to pick out the brands that offer products with no preseevitives. Also products with whole foods. My family's energy level has gone up from eating whole foods. I would recomend this book to all families who are intrested in their health!

Excellent guide to learn healthy grocery products to store.
Because I was aware of the harmful additives and preservatives used in most items carried in the grocery store, I learned to cook with the "basics" like beans, whole grains, nuts and seeds. This book opened my eyes to the thousands of SAFE products on my grocery store shelves that complement what I already have stored.

I like cooking "from scratch", but I am also a very busy person and I'm not always the one in charge of cooking, so my family enjoys knowing what products they can use to make a fast, completely nutritious meal.

Great book!!!!!
