"Superfoods Rx" focuses on 14 functional foods, which are high in micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients) versus macronutrients (fats, carbs, proteins). Dr. Pratt shows that if you fill your "tank" with the right foods, chances of living a long, disease free life are better. In addition to the scientific data, "SuperFoods Rx" teaches readers how to incorporate these foods into their lives with tips on how to eat and cook with superfoods.
Organized around the four seasons, this year-long, day-by-day programme builds on the fourteen SuperFoods introduced in book one and is aimed at anyone who is interested in taking stock of their lives- anyone who wants to do an 'audit' of where they're at in terms of health. Practical and easy to follow, it shows you how to maximize your physical activities for improved levels of fitness, and how to tweak your diet for optimum nutrition. As a bonus, readers will discover how to deal with stress more effectively with a variety of coping mechanisms that can be put into action with little effort. Taking advantage of the rhythms of the seasons, SuperFoods Healthstyle also offers a range of simple dietary changes that can make a real difference to your health - everything from the Top Winter Breakfasts to the best Summer Salads, from how to incorporate foods containing folic acid into your diet to help beat depression, to how treat inflammation fast and effectively. There's even a 'Healthstyle Four-week Fast-track Diet' which is designed to kick-start your metabolism!
