Go Green Get Lean: Trim Your Waistline with the Ultimate Low-Carbon Footprint Diet

I am a stay-at-home mom who has completely changed her way of purchasing and eating food thanks to this book! There is so much informative "green" content that we can all benefit from. Everyone should read this book to learn more about our environment and maintain a healthy diet at the same time. Thank you!

I wouldn't call this a diet, more of a healthy eating plan that is also tasty and good for the environment. Since trying to be more "green", my skin looks better, I have more energy and the recipes are categorized by season making it fresh and easy to shop. Interesting data on the impact of our food choices. And you are encouraged to drink coffee, red wine and eat dark chocolate! No downside here...

This is a must read for anyone and everyone who cares about their bodies, their children and the planet we live on! You don't have to have a need for weight loss to benefit from Kate Geagan's timely message. She presents her research in such a straightforward and even witty way that this is an easy read! And it opened up a whole new way of thinking for me about the food I eat - instead of thinking in terms of what I can't eat, or I'm forbidden to eat, I'm thinking more like, "wow, look what I **get** to eat!! Also, there isn't a guilt trip. If you are dedicated to eating something,like ice cream,then you don't have to stop eating it....just modify your eating habits! I wish this were somehow required reading...it is an important message to spread!

This book is right on trend- we are all struggling with taking care of ourselves and taking care of the planet and wondering what should get top priority. Go Green Get Lean offers a smart, thoughtful and reasonable approach to finding the intersection of personal and planetary health. The writing is approachable and fun and the message is clear- we can make a difference and not compromise much flavor,fun or freedom.

This book does a wonderful job of combining credible nutrition information with eating low carbon footprint foods which will help you lose weight AND save the planet. Go Green, Get Lean is so full of well-researched information. It offers lots of practical tips that I can use with my clients as a registered dietitian and with my family as a mother of two young daughters. From meal plans and seasonal recipes to snack ideas, this book will not disappoint! It's a must read for anyone interested in helping the environment, losing weight, or improving the quality of the diet for you and your family.
