Title: Not so healthy!
Review: Yes this is a book of raw vegan, multi-ethnic recipes but that does not necessarily mean the recipes are healthy! Quite to the contrary, even though the editorial reviewers tout how "healthy" this collection of recipes is, I was personally shocked to see how very high fat practically every recipe is! True, many of these recipes are interesting and different, some are standard and usual, but all seemed to be based on an inordinate amount of nuts, seeds and oil and also represent very poor food combining. This is not healthy daily fare but very rich raw foods which should be enjoyed in moderation and on special occasions only, if at all.To its credit I have to say that it is a nice, organized, well written book with a few pretty and appealing pictures but overall I do not find it to be a very useful book or one I would want to keep in my collection.
Is the review positive or negative?
