MY REVIEW:  In "Healing through Nutrition: The Essential Guide to 50 Plant-Based Nutritional Sources", author Eliza Savage, a registered dietician and nutrition expert, advises readers how to "find health, happiness, and joy through food". In Part One, "Food as Medicine", which features natural remedies from around the world, she explains the "History of Nutritional Healing" and "Plant Nutrition Basics". In Part Two, "50 Powerhouse Healing Sources", she spotlights foods and beverages including vegetables, fruit, whole grains, legumes, and nuts, herbs and spices, and coffee and tea. The benefits of each food or beverage are detailed, and each one is a key ingredient in one or two recipes. As always, consult with your primary care provider before making major dietary changes to determine what will work best for you. Here are some of the recipes you"ll want to try: "Spicy Baked Sweet Potato Fires"; "Classic Sauteed Garlic Spinach"; "Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Banana Bread"; "Marinated Tomato Onion Salad"; "Zesty Sesame-Orange Vinaigrette"; "PB&J Smoothie"; "Savory Shallot Brown Rice"; "Simple Almond Trail Mix"; "Garlic-Ginger Roasted Broccoli"; and "Cinnamon Spice Maple Walnuts". Each recipe includes a nutritional breakdown.
