Product Description
From Library Journal
Finn, a former president of the American Dietetic Association, reveals that most medical studies have primarily used men for their research, even those studies testing the effects of estrogen in battling heart disease. In her enlightening book, she explains how good nutrition can help prevent women's diseases such as breast cancer, osteoporosis, heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. Writing with women of all ages in mind, Finn encourages the reader to think of her body as a "work in progress" and to strive continually for a balanced diet. Calcium, nutrition labels, estrogen, and exercise are only a few of the topics discussed that play extremely important roles in women's health. A good purchase for all public libraries.?Connie Weaver, Bosler Free Lib., Carlisle, Pa.

A good book if you want to gain weight.,

This review is from: American Dietetic Association Guide To Womens Nutrition (Paperback)
If you like"Association Diets," especially one from one of the most politically agressive and media savvy organizations, this one is for you. One look shows the typical high starch, high glycemic diet that almost killed me. If you are truly interested in eating healthy, this type of one-size-fits all diet guide is just about useless.
