highly recommended

Easiest diet ever.

The book is easy to follow and the diet makes good sense. This is an excellent program to follow in order to attain target weight, and maintain good health.

Excellent book on nutrition

I realize that every day we are learning more and more about nutrition, and possibly the book will change one, five, ten years from now, but the reality is that we have to rely on what we know thus far, and I feel that the SuperFoods Rx book is a great guide. I would like to see a small card with all fourteen foods and their sidekicks, something you can take with you shopping (just in case the author reads reviews!!). The book was so easy and enjoyable to read. I sent a copy to my son who is in college. I am hoping that he will read a few pages here and there. The point is that if you just make a couple of changes at a time, and slowly add these super foods to your diet and remove the ones that are harmful, you will be doing yourself a lot of good. I have been interested in nutrition for a very long time, and for some reason this book just hit me hard and made me think a lot about food and what it can do positively and negatively to your body and your mind. I wish I had been more motivated 30 years ago, but the present is always a good time to start. The only negative comment I have has to do with just a few (maybe a couple?) of the recipes. Personally, I would have removed all white flour and refined sugar from the recipes. Other than that, I think the book is a must read for anyone concerned about nutrition and health. It was very well written.

Easy to do and great food

We have been following the guidelines in this book for several weeks now and find the food to be great plus we feel we are eating better food that is also good for us. All the recepies we have tried were delicious. We are incorporating the foods in this book in almost all of our meal planning.

Excellent

I was raised on hot dogs, cola, and candy. This book was a real eye-opener! The authors make a coherent case for the 14 "Superfoods". Some are fairly common (like tea), others obvious (broccoli, spinach). I was surprised by the inclusion of pumpkin (and its substitute the sweet potato).
The authors outline substitutes for each food (except tea) and explain why the food in question is so beneficial, including the antioxidant content of the food and the part of the body it benefits (e.g. spinach is good for the eyes). The authors then back up their claims with citations to scientific studies. If you want to have a healthier diet, read this book!

SuperFoods Rx : Fourteen Foods That Will Change Your Life

I found the book laid out well in its presentation of the 14 Superfoods. The nutritional information and guidelines on the daily requirements for each food category has helped me focus on a more balanced diet. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to be more conscious about what they eat and why they eat it.
