By Roberta L. Duyff. For anyone interested in making informed decisions about the food they eat, this thorough resource is indispensable. Easy-to-read and easy-to-reference sections thoughtfully address common concerns and provide practical answers to a wide range of questions—How much of each vitamin and mineral do I need, what are the best sources, and what happens if I don't get enough? How do I pick a good recipe? How do cow's milk and soymilk compare? Covering virtually all aspects of cooking and eating, the book also provides suggestions for navigating the grocery store, understanding food labels, choosing kitchen appliances and tools, ordering at restaurants, and more.
