There are several great books that will help you understand nutrition, teach you how to find healthier foods, and keep you motivated (even on weekends). Here are some books that I recommend highly.
The F-Factor Diet
Nutrition expert Tanya Zuckerbrot has written this informative book to make eating a healthy diet easier. The F-Factor diet will help you lose weight and keep it off for good. The secret to healthy weight is eating enough fiber and The F-Factor Diet has all of the tips and tools you need to lose weight and be healthy.
Fill Up, Not Out
Franceen Friefeld authored this great book along with her mother, Claire Friefeld. It is clearly written with great ideas to help you choose nutritious foods. One of the highlights of this book are the many photos of meals that show exactly what size portions we should be eating. There are also checklists and food diary pages that can be copied and used to help to achieve a healthy diet.
The Culprit and the Cure
This is a great book by an expert on healthy living, Steve Aldana, PhD. What I like most about this book is that everything Aldana writes is backed up by research. It is well written, and a pleasure to read. Aldana not only tells you how to live healthier, he also teaches you why need to make these changes.
The Gladiator Diet
This book by Larrian Gillespie is written for women about the men they love and how to help them improve their diets. Gillespie writes with a great sense of humor and The Gladiator Diet is a fun book to read. A great resource for anyone who wants to help support a healthy lifestyle for the man they love.
The Inflammation-Free Diet Plan
This interesting book helps you to sort out which foods will reduce inflammation and which foods will actually make inflammation worse. Author Monica Reinagel includes some excellent meal plans, recipes and her Inflammation Factor tables help you rate foods on their capacities to cause or reduce inflammation.
