The New Becoming Vegetarianby: Vesanto Melina, Brenda Davis 2003-09 Search: vegetarian health |

I have been a vegetarian for 7 years, but this is the first nutrition book I've bought. It has taught me so many new facts about different foods and what nutrients they contain, nearly all plant foods contain protein, I always thought it was only nuts and legumes! This book is clear and well laid out. Its not too biased either, and just states the facts. It has plenty of clear tables comparing nutritional values of different foods, and tells you what pattern of nutrients you need to be healthy. It has chapters on protein, minerals (iron, zinc especially), calcium, vitamins from fruits and vegetables, vitamin B12, also info about the vegetarian diet for all stages of life. It provides examples of good daily food plans, and has some recipes at ... Read More:

Plant Based Nutrition and Healthby: Stephen Walsh September 15, 2003 Search: vegetarian health |
||
|
Parts of it are pretty heavy going - It's clear Stephen Walsh is a "databuster" rather than a new Patrick Holford but there are great "Veganism for Dummies" sections at the end of each chapter. Pages and pages of research - Walsh must have spent years in The British Library finding all those studies. He says you could eke out an extra 10 years of healthy living compared with following the average western diet - it's got to be worth the £7.95 for the chance of that alone! Hopefully this book will inspire you to buy one of the excellent new healthy vegan cookbooks on Amazon (ISBN 0600611906 £7.19), visit The Vegan Society Website and make a difference to people, animals and the environment. >>More Details |

I've bought lots through Amazon over the years and this is the first time I've felt strongly enough to write a review. I've no complaints about the information in this book, but I found the tone and style so offputting that I stopped reading after a couple of chapters and have given it away. Basically it felt like the author was making a lot of assumptions about my views just because I'm pregnant and a vegetarian (for example by speaking about the joys of creating life without taking life (i.e. eating meat)) and it made the book very annoying to read. I guess I like the 'rough guide to pregnancy' style, which is peer-to-peer, modern, informative and amusing - in contrast this title felt like I'd gone back in time with traditional ...

Vegetarian Pregnancy and Baby Book (Mitchell Beazley Food) (Mitchell Beazley Food)by: Amanda Grant April 14, 2005 Search: vegetarian health |
||
|
This is a good all round book for anyone who wants a bit of information on either or both veggie pregnancies and weaning. It has recipes for both mum and babies, but is not solely a recipe book. It gives advice on diet and essential vitamins and minerals with examples of meat alternatives. The sections are well laid out and easy to read and I am finding it very useful now that I have started to wean my baby on a vegetarian diet. I refer to this book alot as it is concise and to the point and gives me the confidence to know that I am doing the right thing for my baby. I feel that this is a good starter book for anybody considering veggie weaning but if you are solely after recipes then this is probably not the book for you.

Weight Watchers Versatile Vegetarian: 150 Easy Recipes for Every Dayby: Weight Watchers May 01, 2001 Search: vegetarian health |
||
|
In spite of good intentions,I've never used this book because it requires measuring in the American cup system. I'm still loathe to use metric and rely on my trusty imperial scales, but this is a cup too far. Also the book assumes you understand the Weight Watchers points system. I've never been to WW (nor do I have any inclination to) so this book has left me wanting more than it was prepared to offer.

Like a lot of people, I am gradually coming to the realization that what I put into my body affects the way my mind and body are able to function. Not all food is created equal and counting calories or carbs does very little good if I'm not giving my body the nutrition it needs. Slowly, I am learning that my body, mind, and spirit prefer whole foods to fast food and empty calories.
Rainbow Green Live- Food Cuisine introduces the concept of live-food. This plan is strictly vegan and promotes the usage of fresh raw foods whenever possible. For most people, these recipes will be a radical change from what they eat at present. Nonetheless, they will provide a place to start. I had a few personal challenges while trying these ...
