Summary |
The emphasis of the book is that food preparation can be a joyful pursuit--especially when it is designed to enhance health and prolong life. The more than 250 mouthwatering recipes include salads, soups, side dishes, entrees, condiments, and quick breads. As the Manns point out, eating is one of life's principal pleasures. And the good news is that vegetarians outlive flesh-eaters, and--by incorporating fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, and some nuts in their diets--enjoy the beneficial effects of the tocopherols, ascorbic acid, folic acid, and dietary fiber in their food, all of which reduce the risk of cancer, diabetes, and a host of degenerative diseases. |
