Nutrition Book Review of Food Cures by Joy Bauer

This nutrition book review was a joy to do. (Pun intended.)

Food Cures, authored by Joy Bauer, MS, RD, CDN with Carol Svec, is an excellent, easy-to-read book.

Joy Bauer is well known as the nutrition expert for the "Today Show." She is an expert in her field and has a great sense of humor that comes through making this book an enjoyable and easy read.

There are six parts to her book.

Part One, is Welcome to My Office and Think Like A Nutritionist.

By the time you read this, you'll feel like you've personally met Joy. You'll also know what to expect from her book.

The other five parts cover weight loss; beautiful skin, hair, and teeth; cardiovascular disease, arthritis, type 2 diabetes, and osteoporosis; cataracts, memory, mood, migraines, premenstrual syndrome, insomnia, irritable bowl syndrome, and celiac disease.

She also covers how to read a nutrition label, and her food picks with calorie, fiber and fat counts.

The 4 Step Program - Nutrition Book Review

Each topic gives information that explains what affects that topic, how food affects that topic, foods to limit or avoid, and good foods to choose.

Step 1, Start with the basics... she explains what you need to do to get started.

Step 2, Your ultimate grocery list... she provides your grocery list that covers that topic.

Step 3, Going above and beyond...she shows you everything you can do on that topic.

Step 4, Meal Plans... she has created sample menus and snacks with recipes that include the foods you should eat regarding that topic.

Additionally, bonus points are extremely helpful tips to help you achieve your goals.

This book is laid out well, supported by references and extremely informative. This was one nutrition book review I enjoyed doing.

After reading this book I can say that Joy makes it easy and clear to understand the world of nutrition. She keeps it real and this 4 step guide is exactly that, simple and real!

Food Cures is designed to treat common health concerns, help you achieve longevity and much more.
