I enjoyed how the book covered the nutritional benefits of normal food. Instead of only including exotic or expensive healthy foods most of the book focused on foods that are in everyone's home. It was exciting to have everything laid out in a simple understandable form and be able to compare my diet to it. I did notice that on many of the pages the big blurb declaring how the item helped medically was repeated in the text and as I was reading every page that became a bit of a nuisance. Plus it was like they were just trying to fill the space on the page. For the most part it was enjoyable and informative.
