It reads like a catalog but has lots of info on especially health cultivar of many fruits and vegetables. Also contains fun facts like some vegetables and fruits improve micro-nutrients and antioxidants (but not all). Great resource on what to buy and how to store to maximize healthful properties.

This is a practical book on the nutrition contained in our produce. She describes how our fruit and vegetables began, the changes that have taken place either by accident or by human intervention, and whether those changes improved them nutritionally or not. She also tells us how to pick more the more nutritious food in our stores, farm markets and which to grow. This is a reference I want to keep.

I think that the very simple actions recommended by the researcher authors of this book could have a profound, positive impact on the lives of thousands of women: get more natural light, go for twenty minutes walks five times a week, and take specific easily-obtained vitamin and mineral supplements. What makes the book even more valuable are its structure and tone.

The authors gracefully, gently, and convincingly blend their own scientific research, the findings of other researchers, the experiences of the participants in the LEVITY study, actionable advice, and tips and tools for helping to overcome obstacles to present a plan that I am determined to start.

On a specialist note, this is an excellent example of research translation and dissemination: taking the results of a scientific study and the peer reviewed paper that it produced (which they include in the very last section of the book!) and then writing up the results in a way that is accessible and actionable for the ordinary people who could benefit from it.

Spannend sind die Zusammenhänge zwischen Ernährung und Erkrankung.
Die herausgezüchteten Phytonährstoffe haben mich beeindruckt
