Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A vigorous immune system is vital to good health, both physical and mental. Research has long shown that the nutrients present in common foods can help strengthen the body?s natural defenses and provide unbeatable protection against infection, disease, and allergy. This handy guide lists the most potent of these immune-boosting foods ? profiling each one, highlighting its unique benefits, and providing important nutritional information. The book was written for those in poor health (whether short- or long-term), those who suffer from repeated infections, or anyone who is simply concerned with maximizing health through nutrition. Individual chapters cover Roots and Bulbs; Nuts, Seeds, and Oils; Grains, Pulses, and Beans; Poultry and Game; and much more. Written by a frequent, knowledgeable commentator on this issue, The Top 100 Immunity Boosters provides an invaluable reference for readers interested in the healing properties of foods and natural alternatives to conventional medicine.

For each choice, theres a tasty recipe, and information on its beneficial nutrients.

This is a book I refer to again and again. It is simple to use and has heaps of fabulous recipes. I'm not sick, nor am I afraid that I will be, but I do like to know about the foods that I am eating to ensure that I have a good balance of vitamins and minerals. It is great for those that enjoy being inspired by new recipes, and for those that want to learn about food. This is a reference that I keep on hand when planning my shopping list - thoroughly recommended.
