SuperFoods Rx: Fourteen Foods That Will Change Your Life

FROM OUR EDITORS

Practicing M.D. Steven Pratt bases this book on a simple, sensible premise: Some foods are more linked to health and longevity than others. He notes that foods high in micronutrients (phytonutrients, carotenoids, and antioxidants) can help people prevent the onset of chronic diseases, including type II diabetes, hypertension, certain cancers, obesity, and Alzheimer's. The 14 SuperFoods that Pratt identifies are not exotic: They include such common supermarket fare as blueberries, turkey, beans, wild salmon, bell peppers, and nuts.
