The Anti-Inflammation Diet and Recipe Book by Jessica K Black

The Anti-Inflammation Diet and Recipe Book by Jessica K Black

Today's research clearly shows that our health is very dependent on the food we eat. Poor nutrition choices and hidden food allergies can cause inflammation in the body, which slows healing and can lead to a number of serious, chronic diseases. A Naturopathic Doctor, Jessica Black wrote this book because many of her patients, who were trying to follow a naturopathic, anti-inflammatory diet, couldn't find any recipes to use. She prepared and tested all the recipes herself, using organic and nutrient-rich foods, eliminating common allergenic foods and reducing the intake of pesticides and hormones - all of which help to build a stronger, healthier, healing body. The first part of the book explains how the anti-inflammation diet works. The second part contains 125 simple and tasty recipes, from breakfasts, appetizers and herbal teas to soups, entrees, salads and delicious desserts. Most of the recipes take little time to fix, and include substitution suggestions and health tips. Sample eating plans are included for the summer and winter months, so you can try to eat what's in season.

"Jessica shows that healthy eating need not be time consumingQuick and efficient-yet nutritionally sound-meal preparation can now be a reality for everyone." - Dick Thom, D.D.S., N.D., from the Foreword "...If you are looking for a book that you can recommend to patients with recipes that are dairy and wheat free, emphasizing whole grains, and either vegetarian, vegan or easily adaptable, this is the book. You will find your favorite naturopathic recipes, including spreads, breakfasts, teas, entrees, salads, soups and healthy sweets. Thank you Dr. Black for writing this extremely useful book." - Doni Wilson ND, President of New York Association of Naturopathic Physicians "...The book is written well and easy to follow...food that is good for you is worth the effort to try. Many people with MS, and other chronic diseases, want to try new things to feel better. For this very reason, (this) book will give you pointers and information to improve our health. So if you are motivated and willing to try new tastes, this book will interest you." - Liz, Book Reviewer, MSWorld.com Based on her naturopathic practice, naturopathic doctor Jessica Black has devised a complete program for how to eat and cook to minimize and prevent inflammation and its consequences...While providing delicious food choices, the revolutionary diet in The Anti-Inflammation Diet and Recipe Book eliminates allergens and reduces the intake of pesticides, hormones and antibiotic residues. Appropriate for men and women of all ages -- and especially beneficial for children -- the book will help people learn to eat and cook healthily. Most of the dishes can be prepared quickly by novice cooks. - SirReadaLot.org
