I picked this book up in a cruise ship library and couldn't put it down. In fact at the end of the cruise I quickly scribbled down as much information out of the book as I could so I could have references pages until I could buy a copy. Coming off of a low carb diet I was specifically after good quality "carb" foods that I could start eating with out the fear of weight gain. Although I didn't pay much attention to the excercise topics that forwarded each section I really enjoyed all of the food information. There aren't really that many recipes in this book and the ones I've tried aren't exactly delicious. But the amount of information on specific foods and ideas on how to work them into a normal diet with ease was extensive. I would reccommend this book to anyone on a quest to just eat and feel healthier.

Several months ago I purchased this book along with "Joy Bauer's Food Cures" and "What Colour is Your Diet" by David Heber. I found that "SuperFoods HealthStyle" was by far the best choice of the three. It is well organized, gave clear information about the benefits (or drawbacks) of various foods, and gave suggestions that made it easy to incorporate the desired foods in my diet. The book also includes other, non dietary, information (such as exercise) to improve your health. If you, like myself, have an interest in improving your diet, "SuperFoods HealthStyle" will give you the resources to make numerous positive changes. This book has changed my diet, and therefore my life, for the better.

This is a GREAT book! Simple ways to use REAL foods (not just supplements) to use on a regular basis to get and keep oneself and family healthy!
There are even a few recipes and plenty of ideas. My fussy, I hate it if it's healthy husband will even eat many of these foods and those he won't ,
there are ways to disguise these foods w/in other foods =+)
Very much a book I would recommend to all.

This book has changed our way of eating - the easy way. It is motivating to read how each 'super' food benefits your health, great little recipes to help incorporate the new food in your life. I liked that the book touches on the subjects of porton, sleep, exercise and blood pressure. It is an all rounded book that pulls a lot of good facts into one easy to read source. Forget about diet books ... try this and I have already noticed a change in my health: more energy, improved immune system, loosing weight the healthy way (you do need to exercise!)
I strongly suggest you start incorporating each food type into your diet as you go through the book, or pick what appeals to you first. Otherwise, you'll have a good read with no action. Great if you have cholesterol/high blood pressure as a lot of the superfood seems to focus on these key areas.

Steven Pratt and Kathy Matthews have come up with a marvelous way for you to improve your health, and change your life. Rather than (like most diet books) telling you to give anything up, they encourage you to "add" things to your diet which will make a major difference in how you look and feel over the long haul. Most diet books insist you cut out "this", or cut out "that", or at least minimize the food to some small dime-sized portion. Pratt and Matthews, on the other hand, believe that it is what you are "not" eating that is holding you back from achieving your optimum health, and so their books are focused on getting you to add those foods to your diet. Their very first book (SuperFoods Rx: Fourteen Foods That Will Change Your Life) is actually the one you should read first. It is organized in an extremely logical way, and leads the reader gently yet authoritatively into the concept of adding only 14 foods, making a huge difference in your health. Their second book (SuperFoods Healthstyle) adds an additional 10 foods to the mix (for a total of 24), yet the book lacks some of the instant readability and understandability of the very first book. My honest recommendation is that you start with the very first book (SuperFoods Rx), whether you buy it or just borrow it from the library. Then, when you've read the basics in a clear and understandable way, buy this second book (SuperFoods HealthStyle) which includes virtually all the information from the very first book, also includes a great amount of additional information on exercise and sleep and other health practices, but is not quite formatted in as clear a way as SuperFoods Rx. Aside from my slight critique of the organization of this second book, I want to emphatically say that Steven Pratt and Kathy Matthews have come up with an easy-to-implement strategy for adding terrific foods and nutrients to your diet, that will truly "change your life", and may even add years of good and vibrant health to your life. And as a final enticement, let me just add that "dark chocolate" is one of the 24 SuperFoods. I mean, is this a diet? Yes, and it really works! But it's much more than a diet. It's a plan to change how you look at food and your health.
