Breaking
the Food Seduction: The Hidden Reasons Behind Food Cravings---And 7
Steps to End Them Naturally by Neal Barnard, MD, and
Joanne Stepaniak, M.S.Ed
Our compulsion to eat some foods is usually the basis
of our inability to control our weight, cholesterol, high blood pressure,
acid reflux, and more. Dr. Barnard explains food compulsions, then
outlines seven steps to break those compulsions. To get you
"hooked" on a healthy diet, he presents a three-week plan
complete with over 100 recipes by Joanne Stepaniak. A
good reference book on nutrition for your home library.

Food for Life:
How the New Four Food Groups Can Save Your Life by Neal D. Barnard,
MD
Dr. Bernard writes, "Certain foods slow the effects of time,
while others speed them up. In addition, foods can change the
amounts of hormones in the body." Citing overwhelming medical
evidence previously downplayed by powerful lobby groups, Dr.Barnard
reveals why a diet based on the four food groups (grains, legumes,
vegetables, and fruits) will sharply decrease the risk of cancer and
heart disease while increasing life expectancy. And, most important,
he shows how the quality of your later years can be vital rather
than full of chronic disease. An unexpected plus for this
program is weight loss by most who make the transition to this new
way of healthy eating. Dr. Barnards books are very well documented
with extensive footnotes to research.
