Nuts, seeds, and whole grains are among the most nutrient-rich foods, but remain one of the most under-consumed. A handful of these super plant foods, eaten regularly, can lower the risk for major diseases like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and some cancers, and help us live longer and healthier lives.The results from decades of scientific research on this topic support this claim. How do these plant foods-eaten in very small amounts-deliver such major health benefits? Author Swarna Moldanado, provides the answer in a clear and convincing manner. She explains, for example, that plants contain chemicals, called phytochemicals, which protect them from diseases. When humans eat plant-based foods like nuts, seeds, and whole grains, the same disease-resisting benefit is also acquired by them.

The health benefits of specific nuts, seeds, and whole grains are described in a clear and cogent manner. Included are relevant historical and cultural facts associated with these foods that add interest to the content. The author saved the best for last: a collection of recipes using whole grains, nuts, and seeds as ingredients. Each of these healthy and delicious recipes will entice you to try them with family and friends.
