    You've been hearing it since you were a kid: "You are what you eat." And this wise saying is true! Good nutrition is the key to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight and lifelong good health-no matter how you slice it. Nutrition For Dummies, 6th Edition is a one-size-fits-all guide to nutrition that shows you how to manage your diet so you get the most bang for your buck. This book gives you the know-how to put together a shopping list, prepare healthy foods, and easily cut calories.

    The latest edition of The Dietary Guidelines for Americans encourages individuals to eat a healthful diet-one that focuses on foods and beverages that help achieve and maintain a healthy weight, promote health, and prevent chronic disease. This updated edition of Nutrition For Dummies reflects the latest suggested guidelines and details in plain English so you can incorporate these recommendations for living a nutritionally sound life. You'll get updated RDAs on vitamins and nutritional supplements; find out why you should eat more fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, and other plant-based foods; understand the importance of cholesterol for brain health; get the latest information on obesity; and more.

      The reviews seem to be fake or biased.
      - low value - if you know some basic things about vitamins, diets, etc...
      - might have more value for americans. As a non-american, many chapters are useless.
      - as a non-american, I find this book to really be “for dummies” and have less value.

      Overall, it might give you some value, but it’s better to skip chapters, to avoid wasting your time. Life is too short for bad books.

      I'm not vegan or vegetarian, but aren't we past the 'soy is bad for you' misinformation by now? And using websites such as WebMD as your source instead of, I don't know, PEER REVIEWED ARTICLES seems a very unreliable way to communicate accurate information.

      Marvelous. Now, it is an audio-book. Hope one day it will be presented and illustrated in videos
    • 4/5
      A very easy way to understand supplements, nutrition and the food we eat. It has a great chart of the nutritive and caloric values of lots of foods in it. I like the chart because it is up to date on some of the fruits and vegetables which are now available to us in our stores.
