Summary: Mainstream nutrition is deadly
Comment: The nutritional guidelines are influenced and corrupted by the food processing, agricultural and pharmaceutical industries. The nutritional guidelines are an excellent case study of how private industry regulates itself by corrupting government to protect profits at the expense of our health and the environment. But no matter how severe the costs they're irrelevant because industry doesn't pay them. We do with our destroyed health and finances. There's no such thing as bad cholesterol, saturated fat in large quantities is essential for optimal health, and grains are very controversial. Grains are the base of the food pyramid because the agricultural industry produces excess grains that it dumps on us. Above all avoid processed foods and get "Nourishing Traditions" by Sally Fallon instead of this deadly book.

Summary: A really good 101 book - has depth and is easy to "digest"
Comment: I'm a professional, but frankly never learned good fundamentals of nutrition. This book really lays out the basics, including all the compounds that nourish our bodies. I was definitely empowered to change my eating habits, understand why some foods are good and bad, and dig down to the next level of detail. This is a great book in the "Idiot's" series and I would say this is a good book to have around your bookshelf.

Summary: Better than the first
Comment: Not only does it come across clearly and easy to understand. It is well written covering nutrition for infants to elderly people for lazy people to physically active people. She lays it all out on a silver platter.

Another masterpiece by the best nutritionist.

Buy it or you will be missing out.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Packed With Info!!
Comment: This book should be titled "Total Guide to Nutrition AND Fitness". Ms. Bauer does a great job of explaining nutrition and it's role in maintaining one's health. She also covers exercise, pregnancy, eating disorders, and dieting. Quite a complete book. Don't let the "Idiot's" title fool you--this book goes into detail with many topics and serves as much more than just an intro. Bravo Ms. Bauer!
