The Garden of Eating presents compelling evidence that
humans need a produce-dominated diet
Don Matesz and Rachel Albert-Matesz, authors of The Garden of Eating: A
Produce-Dominated Diet & Cookbook believe Americans are being misled by
the low-carb craze. "Our bodies are built for a diet comprised largely of
vegetables and fruits," say the Matesz team. "Low-carb diets place too much
emphasis on meat and fat and give produce short shrift. These diets create
systemic acidity and may contain too many calories for weight loss yet not
enough carbohydrate, alkaline buffers, vitamins, minerals, or antioxidants for
maintaining health."
The first seven chapters of The Garden of
Eating present compelling evidence for a produce-dominated omnivorous diet
based on the time-tested food ways of pre-agricultural people free of modern
degenerative diseases. The twelve recipe chapters contain 250 family-friendly,
grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free recipes showing people how to make good
nutrition taste great.
Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., author of the
best-seller Fat Flush Plan says "What a service The Garden of
Eating provides delicious, gourmet, produce-predominant recipes, menus,
and ideas that will make your mouth water and get you healthier in the
process!"
The authors have more than 35 years of combined experience in
the natural foods field. Chef Rachel, a former restaurateur, has led more than
600 cooking classes and developed 130 recipes for books by bestselling
Zone diet developer Barry Sears, Ph.D., and teaches Whole Food
Cuisine at the Southwest Institute of Healing Arts (SWIHA) in Tempe, Arizona.
Don Matesz, a freelance food and health writer and nutritionist, heads the
nutrition program at SWIHA. They have published more than 250 food and health
articles.
