Food for Fitness

"Did I really need another book on nutrition? Probably not. But now I have this one I probably won't look at the others again. Not that "Food For Fitness" contains any ground-breaking information, but it's the best common-sense summary I've come across of the latest findings on healthy eating for active people. If you're browsing for just one book on the subject, look no further. What's more, "Food For Fitness" is so clearly written and beautifully presented that it's a pleasure just to turn the pages. Anita Bean knows her stuff, and she shares it with style and grace. The second half of the book consists of recipes using readily available ingredients and listing all the relevant nutritional information. Whether you want to gain or lose weight, eat for a specific sport or just clear a path through the jungle of conflicting advice on diet and health, this is a great investment."
