101 Foods That Could Save Your Life
Mr. Grotto's thorough research and unfeigned style make this book a winner. By including tidbits of ancillary information, he provides a mnemonic that facilitates recall of the details that, indeed, could ameliorate the maladies that follow the Western diet. I use Mr. Grotto's text in my private practice as a way to "break the ice" with patients. I suggest that,
if you want to keep possession of this book, you do not lend it out.

Book Review: 101 Foods That Could Save Your Life
Summary: 5 Stars
What makes this book unique is its easy to read, friendly format. Tired moms, who want to read but have limited time, will find it so refreshing to be able to start and finish on any one page! I love how it appeals to both the scientific and romantic side of food, with its hard facts and historical folk lore. I recommended it to my nutrition intern and she replied with, "I just started reading 101 Foods That Could Save Your Life. I'm sooooooo excited about this book! It's so original in its approach and I love that it's not some quick fix fad diet. I already emailed all my girlfriends about it." The recipes are super too!Book Review: A great how-to, not a how-not-to
Summary: 5 Stars
What a fun book! I highly recommend it to anyone who likes to eat and cares about health. Finally a book that tells us what to eat instead of giving us the dreaded list of bad-for-you foods. David Grotto gives us the why, how and a whole lot more. Who knew that figs had more fiber than any other fresh or dried fruit and that they contain digestive enzymes? He gives us a recipe, the health benefits and some history - fun, tasty and interesting - 101 times! You'll never get in a food rut if you use this book to choose one new food each week. As a registered dietitian, I want all my patients to have this book.Book Review: A must-have nutrition resource book, cookbook and medicine chest all-in-one!

Summary: 5 Stars
101 Foods That Could Save Your Life is packed with information about eating healthy. I saw the author, David Grotto, on a channel 5 program a few weeks ago when Grotto said that his 3 daughters had to approve of every recipe he put in his book. That is something! I leave the book on my kitchen counter; many family members and friends have picked it up, read bits of it and found it every helpful and interesting. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to learn about the foods that are good for you and taste great, too.
