Looking for meals that are delicious, healthy, and easy to make? How does Shiitake Mushroom and Asparagus Frittata with Smoked Salmon sound? Or a Roasted Red Pepper and Kalamata Olive Sicilian Salad? Or Pistachio Pilaf with Butternut Squash and Gingered Cranberry Sauce? They sound very tasty, but would you believe they can also actually help you control your genes, making your RealAge younger? You don't have to be at the mercy of heredity. It's true: These recipes and many more have been developed and tested by Dr. Michael F. Roizen, author of the bestselling RealAge, Are You as Young as You Can Be?, and Dr. John La Puma, who is also a professionally trained chef. With his RealAge program, Dr. Roizen has already helped tens of thousands of people turn back the clock. Now he and Dr. La Puma are cooking things up in the kitchen in Cooking the RealAge Way.

Cooking the RealAge Way offers more than eighty easy, healthful, and scrumptious recipes, all of which prove that nutritious meals don't have to be time consuming, filled with hard-to-find ingredients, ortaste like they're good for you. These recipes explode in flavor and are low in aging fats and sugar and high in Omega-3 oils, flavonoids, and antioxidants. Each recipe provides a detailed description of that meal's age-reducing benefits, and every meal of the day is covered -- from breakfast's melt-in-your-mouth Golden Banana Pancakes with Fresh Raspberries to the after-dinner pièce de resistance Chocolate Strawberry Sundae. The meals are so appetizing, you'll forget that they are good for you and make them again and again.

Cooking the RealAge Way also features:

• The Kitchen IQ test -- use it to find out if your kitchen is aging you and how to stock your kitchen to make yourself younger with what you eat
• The benefits of using fresh produce in season
• The advantages of using the best herbs and spices -- and how to grow them in your garden
• Tips on improving your family's eating habits
• Easy culinary techniques, from blanching to grilling

Finally, a cookbook that both your nutritionist and inner gourmand will love.

Summary: Good but not what I thought it would be
Comment: It had information that I wasn't expecting that was good but things I knew as a nutritionist. I was disappointed that it didn't have more recipes. That was why I had purchased the book.

Summary: liked the book, not the cover
Comment: It took longer than expected to receive this book and when I did get it, it was obviously damaged. I was not happy. It was described as new, and it looked used.

Customer Rating:
Summary: LIfe Changer
Comment: These are excellent recipes. Easy to make and health promoting. I did not need the depth the author went into on setting up a kitchen but it would be helpful for those folks who don't already know how to do this. The recipes are used frequently in our household and enjoyed by all.
