Whole Foods Diet Cookbook: 200 Recipes for Optimal Health Review



THE WHOLE FOODS DIET COOKBOOK
200 Recipes for Optimal Health
FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE TIRED of counting calories, carbs, fats, and points, this book makes nutrition count instead. Whole foods are nutrient-rich foods-those foods that offer a complete balance in nutritional value while in their natural, unrefined, unprocessed state. They are high in antioxidants, phytochemicals, and essential fats and oils, and low in saturated fats and sugar.
Whole Foods Diet Cookbook includes chapters to educate the reader, and plenty of delicious menus for every occasion. It provides a three-prong culinary approach to healthy living, weight loss, and disease and illness prevention.
Ivy teaches cooking classes throughout south Florida in Williams-Sonoma, Whole Foods Market, and private culinary stores. She is also a regular contributor as a wellness-lifestyle expert to the television show The Balancing Act.
Other title by the authors is The Gold Coast Cure, which sold more than 60,000 copies.
Andrew Larson coauthored Chicken Soup for the Soul Healthy Living: Weight Loss with Mark Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen, which sold more than 80,000 copies.
The whole foods movement has traits similar to the organic movement, the vegetarian lifestyle, and the local/seasonal food movements, which are continuing to grow in popularity.

Ivy Larson is a certified health fitness instructor. She teaches cooking classes throughout the Palm Beach area and also conducts "Eight-Week Lifestyle Makeover" programs at wellness facilities in south Florida.
