Nutrivore

Full of great information, based in actual science. I like how it's organized but subject as well, will be buying some copies for my school district (I'm a Nutrition Director). Highly recommend!

This book is uplifting

I'm enjoying listening to this audiobook so much. I got it in addition to a hard copy. I think the author does a great job narrating. Her voice, and the content of the book, is positive and uplifting, and moves along at a good pace. The PDF that accompanies the book is a really helpful resource. I like that I can print out the charts. My family has diverse dietary preferences, and this book does a great job at accommodating those preferences while teaching us new ways to boost nutrient intake within those frameworks.

Best source of current accurate nutrient information

This book helps debunk fad diets that create malnutrition. It's well written, science backed. I highly recommend it for those that want to be healthy and have a healthier relationship with food. I will listen to this book over and over as I continue to loose weight,reduce cholesterol and feel satisfied with my food choices.

The Audibook Version of Nutrivore is Amazing!!!

I just finished listening to the audiobook version of Nutrivore, which is another masterpiece by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne! She did an awesome job of narrating the audiobook, which is packed with so much valuable information related to nutrients, but goes above and beyond other books that discuss nutrient density. While I highly recommend reading or listening to the entire book, my favorite chapters were Chapter 9 and Chapter 10, as Chapter 9 discusses the Nutrivore foundational foods, while in Chapter 10 Dr. Sarah discusses some common myths related to foods, including whether it's okay to eat frozen foods, canned foods, nonorganic foods, goitrogenic foods, foods high in oxalates, etc. Make sure you also check out the accompanying PDF.

Nutrition made easy

This audiobook was fantastic and is already helping me heal my relationship with food. Dr Sarah summarizes the latest nutritional science in an easy to understand format, it’s invaluable information from thousands of studies and meta analyses. I especially loved the section on illnesses/deficiencies, it’s like a roadmap for how best to protect yourself and loved ones by maximizing your nutrition, no matter how you like to eat. Her no judgement, non biased attitude toward nutrition is a refreshing and much needed arrival in the chaotic world of food today. Take the guess work out of your nutrition and listen to this book. 10/10

I love how positive this book is!

Wonderful health information without all the fear-mongering! I absolutely loved this book and it is already making a positive impact on my health and well being. Thank you for putting this out in the world!

Excellent and Refreshing

The content of this book is a MUST for anyone trying to find a common-sense voice among the hordes of people giving diet and health advice. This is doable, encouraging, and hopeful.

The enthusiasm of Dr. Ballantyne is obvious as she reads this book, but there are times when she over-pronounces some words and it sounds a little artificial. But I was able to time that out and really take in all the great information offered here. And the PDF materials were super helpful too!

Excellent resource and narration!

Very helpful; made complex science easier to digest (pun intended). I will go back through this one again. Thank you, Dr. Sarah!

Paradigm Shift in Nutrition

Dr. Sarah Ballantyne successfully explains how the food we eat impacts our health in very direct ways. She clearly explains not only the ramifications of nutritional deficiencies on our health and well-being, but offers a solid argument for diversifying our diets to include multiple types of nutritious foods for the best health outcomes. I have also purchased this book for several of my family members.

Nutrivore

So many numbers and abbreviations without much content. Seems like other books with similar content have much more usable information.
