Customer Response

Excellent Book-Easy to Read
This book is very comprehensive and easy to read. Covers all aspects of the different foods, their benefits and drawbacks. Well worth the money.

Scam with fabricated facts
First thing cames to my mind when I started reading thru' pages: Stay away, it's a scam! After reading this book, I decided one thing- Never ever buy a health book from big media publishing houses like Reader's Digest. Since they run magazines and have Cola companies, pharmaceuticals etc as their advertisers, they make sure that anything they write won't dissatisfy their advertisers. That's well reflected in this book. Preservatives, artificial sweeteners and processed food are not too bad as per this book(or they didn't find drawbacks in it). But they could find many drawbacks in fruits and vegetables. And, their quote is that We, Americans are lucky to have the safest food in the world, Huh?
I want to be the part of the media to make people believe that. Unfortunately my commonsense doesn't permit me to do so. I bought this book seeing the colorful and wonderful illustration with a motive that my little kid could learn about healthy foods. Since, all facts in this book is fabricated which is aimed to protect "corporate interests", I'll throw it out of my library.
My advice to those who care about their health: Stay away from this crap!!!

Unimpressive
This book gives the preception of abundant health knowledge, and although it covers many foods it really dose not give much useful information. I also wander about its accuracy. Read page 14 " Dose Chinese restuarant syndrome really exist?" I dont think this book is for those who really want to be healthy and stay away from the doctor. Ask those whos teeth have been destroyed by fluoride then see if you agree with the statments under "Did you know?" on page 129. Do a web search on flouride and see if it agrees with what this book says. This is a great book for those who want to consume the American diet and preceive, that they are healthy while doing so.

Cooking info
Real eye opener for someone that doesn't have time for food research and a review for those that have.

Excellent . Book was a gift.
This book came recommended, and it was sent as a gift to my daughter for her family. They are highly impressed with the articles. My teenage grand daughter is very impressed at the knowledge she has learned. Memaw
