"The Nutrition Bible"
But while this information is all presented lucidly and accessibly, it's also available in many other nutrition tomes. What makes this reference special is the fact that Anderson and Deskins include so many other health-related items. Acetone peroxide (a flour additive) and acne, Islamic dietary laws and hair analysis, morning sickness and parasitic worms, rashes and "smart drinks," sweating and urinary-tract infections--these health issues are all discussed, with up-to-date details on what the scientific community knows about causes and cures. There's an entry on stainless-steel cooking utensils, a recipe for butternut squash and snow-pea salad with sesame dressing and another for Portuguese pumpkin soup (with nutrition charts, of course), an essay on fasting, a paragraph on the inferiority of plastic cutting boards (as compared to wood), and a warning on the bacterial dangers of refreezing. Truly a bible for the '90s, the decade where health is the new religion and nutrition, diet, and fitness its holy trinity, The Nutrition Bible is a remarkably comprehensive, timely, and engaging resource. --Stephanie Gold
