Nutrition for Life by Lisa Hark, Darwin Deen In this practical home reference guide to a healthy diet, Hark and Dean, nutritionists and educators both, decode the conflicting messages about nutrition that people often get from the news and from various weight-loss programs. After imparting tips on subjects like smart snacking, exercising and drinking water, they explain nutritional concepts, breaking down the food pyramid and providing a directory of vitamins and minerals. Perhaps the most useful section describes how to "eat for the time of your life"; the authors include graphs of healthy weights, charts listing foods that are good for certain age groups and plenty of sound advice for athletes, pregnant women and people of all ages. Demystifies the main fad diets, and look at how food is related to health problems. Discusses buying and storing food. Provides a handy guide to common foods' nutritional value. Presents lists, questionnaires, "jargon busters" and recipes in easily digestible and colorful formats. Includes sidebars containing case studies (such as a preschool child who will eat only white food). Provides advice for common problems. This book neatly combines information about essential food facts for all age groups from infants to senior citizens into an authoritative reference tool that is particularly useful for families.
