Product Description
Product Description
Let's Fuss about Food, Part 1: Our Core and more is the first in a series of handbooks dedicated to the fuss about food. Diet recommendations and food science are best left to the experts, but understanding how food matters is best left to us.
This handbook answers questions about the effects of food on our bodies. To understand the fuss about building muscles, shedding fat, becoming vegetarian, organic foods, and more, we first need to digest the basics. That's what the lets Fuss about Food series is all about. I share this information as food lover, consumer, and concerned environmentalist.
Inside this handbook, you will find fun quotes, diary pages and even a few recipes.

De-mystifies the world of food and nutrition!,
By Eleni. "Montreal" (Dollard-des-Ormeaux, Quebec Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Let's Fuss about Food Part 1: Our Core and More (Paperback)
Since becoming a mother, I have been increasingly interested in food and nutrition. While there are many informative books out there, this one takes us back to the basics.We constantly read and hear about counting calories, increasing protein, cutting out fat, but have lost sight of their importance to our health. While books on diet tell us what to eat or not (in order to lose weight) and nutrition textbooks scientifically explain, "Let's Fuss about Food. Part 1: Our Core and More" de-mystifies the world of food and nutrition. Written concisely with a touch of humor in a direct and unencumbered tone, this book equips us with the information we need to make informed decisions about what we eat. Being easy to read and well organized, it is a valuable reference book for anyone's library; teens, young adults, parents, grandparents. I am very excited about the next addition to the series which will move beyond the basics so magnificently covered in Part I.

Pleasant surprise.,

This review is from: Let's Fuss about Food Part 1: Our Core and More (Paperback)
I am in a very strange position to review this book, as the author is related to me. You will understand then that it was with some apprehension that I first read it, as I knew I would have to react to it. I was just enchanted to discover that reacting would be no problem. This book is an excellent investment. Joanna Lynn set out to demystify for the general public the discourse of dietitians and various other specialists and has done so with great success. The book is informative and well organised. Everything becomes clear : transfats, carbohydrates, cholesterol, you name it.The style is crisp and uncomplicated; the illustrations are entertaining; the quotations combine the useful and the funny. A book for all ages. A handbook, as pages are included for your notes and comments. A perfect gift, to yourself or for others.
