The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth

My brother-in-law had this book and when I discovered it during one of our family visits to my in-laws' I became obsessed with it. So obsessed in fact that I probably read 1/3 of it in one sitting and proceeded to add sticky notes to pages which contained nuggets of info that I deemed valuable. In the end, my brother-in-law very sweetly insisted that I take it home and keep it. Thanks, Steve!

I'm a foodie. I appreciate good food – real food, not the processed, manipulated food that has ruled the majority of our grocery stores today – and care about what I eat. I view food as delicious, a gift and believe in the functional qualities of it.

This is a beautiful book and the bounty of information it contains is very easy to digest. So easy, in fact, that when my toddler asks me about a particular food – "Mommy, what are bananas for?" – I respond with an enthusiastic, "Let's find out!," pull the book off the shelf and read it to my boys while we eat.

Enjoy!
