Makes Living Longer Simple

This is a useful refernce book disguised as easy entertainment. It is loaded with the foods that are fun to eat and good for you at the same time. I heard Dr. Applegate say on the radio that heart disease takes a lifetime to develop and only moments to kill and that over half the deaths that occur every year are from some form of heart disease. So she scared me into buying her book! It has a "Special Risks for Women" section which I made my Mom read. Now she is eating smarter and loves her daily chocolate ration that is OK with Dr A. This book is on my nightstand and before I fall asleep I open the book at any random spot to see which of the 100 foods it opens to and I learn about a new food I had not thought about before or one I am already eating regularly and why it is so good for me. Even though she is from a big University she keeps everything real simple and easy to remember. It definitely changed my life and I feel my Mother and I will live longer because of it. If you read this, thanks Dr. Applegate.

Cool smoothie recipes!

I took Dr. Applegate's nutrition class about ten years ago and she was so cool. She knows everything! She teaches nutrition science to more college students than anyone in the world, over 2,000 a year. I liked her book because I can spend a couple of minutes looking at one or two of her "100 super foods" and learn something fun and neat to know without having to read a whole chapter. (I didn't know avocados and chocolate were good for me.) Her book also showed me how easy all that good/bad cholesterol thing is to understand and how to keep your blood stream loaded with the right stuff. I trust all her tips and tricks about eating right because she is a professor at the University of California. I am giving my parents a copy so they will live longer. I feel more energetic after making one of her power shakes. Her cool smoothie recipes are great on a hot day. And they are extra tasty knowing they are making me healthier. I take her "super food" list with me to the supermarket so I will buy the best foods. The book is easy to read, and a trusty quick reference guide for information that shows you how to live a longer, healthier life.
