consultant and a pioneer in the field of nutrition, health and longevity. His
leading edge research in the field of food and how it affects all aspects of
health and disease has helped thousands of people. He now shares his knowledge
with you. His philosophy is to show you how to lead a happier, healthier and

fun and tasty foods. The ideas are easy to implement in anyone's life.
Included in the book are what to eat when on the road, how to feed the kids and
family, hidden poisons in many everyday meals and how to avoid them, stocking
your pantry, less expensive alternatives to the "bad" foods that taste great and
much, much, more.

What to Eat
Nutrition Recommendations
This is a simple nutritional guide.
- Eat all the raw fruits and vegetables you
wish - the more the better!

nuts and dried fruit, raisins or berries (be sure there is no sugar,
preservatives or sulfites added).
- Beans, peas, seeds and nut butters (peanut,
almond, sesame or cashew) are all good snacks. Be sure there is no
hydrogenated oil in the butters.

physician who is trained in nutrition before you make any radical changes in
your nutritional program.
