Self-Help
A healthy body makes for a healthy brain, and this fun,
creative guide is designed to help readers have both — they
can be smarter, stronger, happier, and more energetic by
changing a few dietary habits. Nutritionist and frequent
morning talk show guest Samantha Heller has created a life
raft in a sea of confusing and contradictory nutrition and
diet information. Heller's Nutrition Prescription plan considers each person's
habits, budget, and food preferences when making lifestyle
recommendations. Raised on white rice and beans? Switch to
brown rice instead. Can't afford fresh Atlantic salmon?
Canned salmon will do just as well. Fresh vegetables
unavailable at the neighborhood bodega? Frozen are just as
nutritious. Heller's unique, user-friendly approach is based
on the most current scientific and medical research, while
her food lists, meal plans, substitutions, and recipes are
easy to follow. Heller links the benefits of good nutrition to healthy brain
functioning, explaining how readers can improve memory,
focus, mood, mental clarity, heart health, psychological
well-being, and energy levels — all through a healthy diet
and regular exercise. Get Smart will motivate and empower people of all ages to
change their lives.
