The Forgiving Fork : From Whole Food to Soul Food: The Kiwi Girls' Guide to Eating Well and Feeling Fine
Overview
Do you ever get hangry? Do you know how to read your B-mail? Are you ever tempted to spend your entire paycheck on a bag of MacGuffinberries? This visually appealing book, generously illustrated with witty vintage images, is a comedic, kind and empowering love letter to women of all ages, and will appeal to readers from mid-teens upward. It's a down-to-earth, practical guide to navigating the confusing, conflicting and sometimes downright wacky nutritional advice being handed out every day via the media and internet, leaving women confused and lacking confidence about just what they should be eating, and why. With a humorous, cynical and realistic eye, New Zealand-born, US-based nutritionist Sandy Cowell shoots down the trend for 'one-size-fits-all' diets, and reveals the best way to recognise snake-oil, dodgy research and media manipulation. She translates bodily functions and concepts into easily-understood, 'layman's' terms, reveals the main issue affecting our health today, and serves up a buffet of simple habits that can radically improve the way you feel. Grab your Fork, and dig in. "A wonderfully sensible book, by a wonderfully funny woman..." Sophie Bidwill, Minister for the Arts, Thunderpants New Zealand.
