Very interesting book!
Very interesting book! I like it a lot. A lot of helpful information but you have to read very carefully because when comparing some of the products you must compare their serving sizes. Good book, I would recommend.

Very Good
I enjoyed the Adult version of this book, so I purchase the child version to share with my kids and teach them about eating.

The book is well designed in that it does seem to keep them focused on learning about the subject matter and what to look for to try to eat healthier, though unfortunately it is often difficult to eat "healthy" due to all the things kids face these days, such as vending machines and fast food.

It seems to have helped in that my children seem to be considering their eating choices, and making (or agreeing to) better ones than before.

Read This, Not That
I brought this book into my seventh grade science class and my kids cannot take their eyes off it. The photographs of all their favorite foods immediately capture their attention. The nutrition information is well-researched, thorough, and positively encyclopedic. This book is a must for all parents.

Find Out About The Dangers Associated With Dieting

qweDieting should have sensible basis otherwise it may do nothing but undermine and ruin your health. There are some dangers associated with dieting. Danger 1 - on my own The habit always to rely upon oneself is not the appropriate tactics in dieting. Fattiness like any other diseases should be treated under the strict doctor’s control. Every one is unique and needs certain and specific approach. Someone may be stout but have a good health someone may have few “extra kilos” which will intermix with serious diseases. So you should be completely aware of your current state. Work, life style, surroundings, living conditions and even climate should be taken in account when choosing a diet. Danger 2 - on the buckwheat There are several dieting myths: you should eat meat, you should eat once or twice a day, it’s useful to eat only buckwheat or apple pines for example. Each product is wholesome for sure but only in the combination with other useful products. And if you decided to keep to a “one-side” diet you merely deprive yourself of necessary and vital elements. The greatest problems may cause incredible protein decrease, especially animal protein which can not be substituted by soy or legumes protein. Animal protein is the base for ferments and hormones production. In case you reduce protein consumption the reproductive function gets worse and the blood formula changes. Another danger is the lack of calcium which we usually get of the diary products. This element is absolutely necessary especially for the young organism which bones are still in the process of formation. The variety of food is the main point of the right diet. Remember you may eat everything but with the sense of measure. Fish, vegetables and fruits are irreplaceable products and should “find place” in your diet however. Danger 3 – only diet If you really want to loose weight and not to regain it you’d better thing about dieting and physical loading as separate things but work out the plan of healthy life style. It may include the food we eat, the way we spend our free time, sleep and whatever. The main tendency today is square meals and minimum of physical exercise. The quantity of energy we receive should not exceed the quantity we consume. The simplest recommendations are to eat divisionally – every 3 or 4 hours in little quantities, not to eat before going to bed. Danger 4- food is my best friend The other stumbling block is to compensate stress depression by eating sweets and chocolates. Some times in such situations a person may eat even when he is not hungry. Remember everything is in your own hands.
