Nutrition Relationships: A Practical Guide to Discovering Your Unique Nutrition Needs (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781537577012)

We rely on food to survive. Despite all of the time we spend planning meals, making recipes, and eating, the relationship we have with what we eat is often rocky. Marketers try to sell us food with substandard nutrition, and diet trends and fads fail us again and again. It's time to take a different approach.

Nutrition Relationships aims to explore how to make our relationship with food personal. Each body has unique nutritional needs, and this affects what types of foods each person should be eating. There is no one-size-fits-all solution, but this helpful guide goes through how each of us can figure out our own ideal plan. The result will be a greater understanding of our distinct nutritional needs and better overall health. Learn the science behind food and health:

- How inflammation and insulin resistance lead to many common illnesses

- What the glycemic index is and how it is different for each person

- Which types of food are better and worse for each blood type

This new perspective on nutrition shows how we can make the best choices for our own bodies. It's just one person and one plate, getting to know each other a little better.
