Food Becomes You - Paperback

by Peg Doyle (Author)

When you envision your future, what do you see? Food Becomes You reminds readers of the simple truth that the food we put in our bodies becomes a part of us, in our tissues, organs, systems, and senses. It deconstructs nutrition science to show what our bodies and minds need to thrive, all woven into the stories of many who turned their lives around by changing their food.

Baby boomers will find this book especially useful as they approach their fifties and beyond, though the lessons are ones that we all should learn. If you want a healthy, vibrant future, you have to make healthy nutrition choices-now-and this book will help you learn how.

In an easy to read fashion, Food Becomes You provides invaluable tips, examples, and recipes that will allow you to seamlessly incorporate healthy foods and easy meal preparations into your life.
