Reading Suggestions to Boost Your Nutrition


Back

When you fuel your body with optimal nutrition, you have the energy you need to move and feel well throughout the day. If you’re currently feeling a bit uninspired about what to cook, check out our latest reading suggestions: “How Not to Die” and “Love Real Food.”

How Not to Die

The title of Dr. Michael Greger’s book “How Not to Die” gets right to the point – if you don’t want to die prematurely, pick it up. It’s essential reading for anyone looking to use food to support their overall health.

Dr. Greger founded NutritionFacts.org and is an internationally recognized physician and speaker. In the book, he suggests lifestyle shifts and what to eat to prevent the top 15 causes of death. From heart disease to diabetes to various cancers, he explains why the food we choose to fuel our body can sometimes make a more significant impact than prescriptions or other interventions. He also shares a checklist of the Daily Dozen foods everyone should strive to eat every day, plus more than 120 Daily Dozen-focused recipes.

If you want actionable advice backed by cutting-edge nutritional science, “How Not to Die” should be at the top of your must-read list. All proceeds from the book are donated to charity.

“Absolutely the best book I’ve read on nutrition and diet.” Dan Buettner, author of The Blue Zones Solution

Love Real Food

There’s no way to deny the health benefits of adding more vegetables and plants to your diet. That’s why Kathryne Taylor’s cookbook “Love Real Food” is a game-changer for those wanting to live and feel well.

Too often, making changes to live healthier seems too overwhelming. Kathryne, well-known for her popular vegetarian food blog, Cookie and Kate, takes the overwhelm out of this shift by giving readers more than 100 delicious, simple meatless recipes.

She also makes substitution suggestions to make recipes approachable for special diets, including for people who are gluten-free, dairy-free, and egg-free.

“Kathryne Taylor from popular blog Cookie & Kate is one of the most personable people on the internet, and her new cookbook, Love Real Food, is just as accessible and bright as her blog, filled with plant-based recipes that are low enough on the complicated-scale to actually be made.” ― Mind Body Green
