Immeasurably impressed! by Patrick Hafner (Twin Cities, Minnesota) 5 Stars
November 17, 2009
"The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth" provides a thorough rundown on a wide array of commonly available foods and the nutrients they contain. To eat right in today's world is not easy, as the foods we have as options often contain nutritional "landmines," such as high fructose corn syrup and the unsavory sludge known as trans fats.
Author Jonny Bowden gives the details you need to steer clear of such hazards, and does it with an informal, uncomplicated presentation. I especially appreciate his perspective of "it depends" in the case of so many different foods, explaining that the processing, source from which they came, and nutrients a given creature consumed before it gets to your dinner plate all factor in to the healthfulness of a given food.
A great book for your healthy living library!

Best "Superfoods" book on the market by E. Andersen (Los Angeles) 5 Stars
September 29, 2009
This is the best book on the market dedicated to superfoods. The information inside is worth a small fortune. Using a few of Bowden's recommendations have improved my health in a relatively short period of time. If we all used the nutrition in foods for our health, we would need fewer supplements and be less dependent on doctors.

excellent read by J. Carroll (Southern Highlands,NSW,Aust.) 5 Stars
August 28, 2009
Whilst convalescing after major surgery I went to [...] and first saw Dr Jonny Bowden. At the time I felt shut out from life and wondering if my recovery would be successful. Jonny Bowden's videos and advice cheered me immensely. Eventually I bought his book and no regrets. I have read it for the best part of a month and have appreciated everything in it. Our supermarkets nearby stock so much but we are "factory" fed and ingredients of many products may not be beneficial to us at all but are there for appearance and shelf life. The majority of the foods listed are actually nice to eat. Yes I know- I saw the quote long ago, "People who eat natural foods die of natural causes". But in between they must contribute to your well being. It is simply good nutrition. I would say this book is a favourite on my bookshelf. I was also lucky in that the used copy I bought was delivered speedily and happened to be personally autographed by Jonny Bowden. That was a nice thing.

Another Great Health Food Book by Patricia A. Lange (West Jordan, UT United States) 5 Stars
August 04, 2009
I usually like books with recipes. This one is an exception! A lot of these foods are great fresh anyway or require little cooking. The pictures are beautiful. I liked the "Expert's Top Ten" showing what the famous doctors, authors, etc. choose as their top ten healthy foods.
Each section Fruits, Vegetables, Legumes and Beans, etc. are alphabetized. Very imformative and easy to read. I was glad to read that a lot of foods are very healthy that I have been avoiding. I'm sure moderation is the key , as with most anything. Eggs, liver, coffee and chocolate are not deadly foods! There are a lot of foods that are very nutritious though fattening unless used in moderation as in nuts of most kinds. Again, this was recommended by a friend and I combined it with another book to make free shipping. I think I got a great deal on Amazon.
