a new beginning

great for beginners trying to change their eating habits going to recommend to all my friends and family

it's a cookbook

If you're looking for someone to read a cookbook to you, this is what you're looking for.

1st chapter had very basic information on the diet, mostly anecdotal not statistical or scientific. The rest of book provided recipes.

Personally, I wanted more "why's" but otherwise grab a pen and write down your favorite recipe to try.

Good basic knowledge.

Pretty good info. Easy to read and understand. will try some of the recipes. Look forward to positive resukts.
