About this book

Dr. Winter brings order to our understanding of nutrition, exercise, and how these factors work together in health and illness. Many diseases-cancer, heart attack, and stroke, for example-are discussed in detail. It is not a fad book-just pure facts and good sense.

Reviews

Winter...successfully blends research and clinical facts in an easily understandable prose. Touches of humor throughout the chapters make interesting reading...A readable introduction to nutrition and fitness.-Choice
