In today's high-speed culture, sensible human nutrition has been
sidetracked by convenience foods and fad diets. Attempting to cut
through the hype can be overwhelming for anyone, even when you have the
best of intentions about adopting healthier eating habits and committing
to long-term wellness. Fortunately, wellness expert Brett Blumenthal has
created a straightforward diet and nutrition program to demystify the
secrets of healthy eating once and for all. She identifies five simple
principles, founded in fact, that can easily be applied in everyday
life. Her "GET REAL" toolkit outlines tips on establishing proper
portion size, shopping smart at the grocery store, and making healthy
substitutions in cooking, along with advice about exercise, hydration,
and stress reduction. And with forty pages of simple, satisfying recipes
at your fingertips, you can jump-start your nutritional makeover the
tasty way, at breakfast (Mushroom and Asparagus Egg-white Omelets and
Pleasantly Surprising Whole-grain Pancakes), lunch (Spinach, Raisin, and
Chickpea Salad with Chicken and Farm Fresh Italian Calzones), and even
dessert (Grandma's Chocolate Clusters and Summer's Over Apple Crumble).
Hailed as "the 'diet book' for people who hate diet books," Get Real
and Stop Dieting! will inspire, empower, and motivate you to live a
healthier, happier life.
