first book, When in Doubt, Eat Broccoli! (but leave some room
for chocolate) received outstanding reviews from consumers and
health professionals alike. Liz's second book, The Ultimate
Healthy Eating Plan (that still leaves room for chocolate!)
is the ultimate book for optimal health. It’s filled with
common sense nutrition, backed up by reams of sound scientific
research. It’s a National Bestseller and won the 2003 Independent
Publishers Award for best book in the health/nutrition category
(over 1500 titles were submitted by 900 publishers from across
North America). This book is truly a must-read book in the nutrition
world! |
