About this title

Review:

The word "diet" means more than eating less. It's cutting down on some factors (fat, usually), and getting enough of others. If you're serious about eating healthfully and losing weight, you need more than a list of calories: you need a reliable source of comprehensive dietary information. That's where Nutrition Facts comes in. Within its pages are more than 40,000 entries that list everything from abalone to zucchini--raw foods, fast foods, and brand names included. For each item Art Ulene presents calories, protein, carbohydrates, sodium, fiber, fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, percent of calories from fat, plus vitamins and minerals. He takes the guesswork out of healthful eating, and provides the wherewithal for you to follow through on your laudable intents.
