Practical Encyclopedia of Superfoods

Our dietary choices can impact on our energy levels, moods, libido, mental performance and overall well-being. Certain ingredients are now considered to help prevent heart and bone disease, promote brain activity and eye health, reduce cholesterol levels, increase metabolism and protect against cell damage. This comprehensive health-food encyclopedia is packed with easy-to-follow information on sourcing, preparing, cooking and storing superfoods. A visual directory presents over 100 of the top superfoods and gives information on their health-promoting nutrients and properties, including iron, mineral, calcium, vitamin and flavenoid content. A selection of fabulous, healthy recipes featuring at least one, and often more, of the superfoods in each, are shown in clear, colourful step-by-step photographs.
