The long-anticipated collaboration of Dr. Mike Nichols and Chef Charles Vollmar, Eat Real Food or Else… offers:

• A comprehensive system that promotes lifelong health, with nutritional advice based on the broad view of the entire body.

• Illustrated step-by-step recipes proving that healthy everyday food can be delicious.

• Detailed explanations about the effects of various foods on our bodies, with simple yet scientifically accurate justifications that take into account the latest findings of research.

• Tools to make informed food choices.

• Perspectives from which to examine the existing diets and the nutritional literature.

Nutrition is a difficult science, reflecting the huge complexity of our body. It cannot be reduced to a set of simplistic rules. However, some principles can be established, old myths must be debunked.

In these pages, you will not find a “one-size-fits-all” diet, but you will learn to listen to your body and adapt your diet accordingly. We cannot tell you food by food what you should eat, but we can guide you step by step on your way to health and satisfaction.

I’ve been meaning to write to you for some time now to tell you how happy and grateful I am that I have YOUR cookbook of all cookbooks. After being put on a strict anti-inflammatory diet by my doctor, I quickly discovered that none of my stable convenience foods were on it, oh no! (not even most things from Whole Foods). What was I to do? I would have to cook things from scratch – YIKES!!, and you know I’m no cook, but I realized there was no choice. So looking through my cookbooks, yours turns out to be perfect cookbook for me. Everything I’ve made from it so far has been delicious, and the science behind it is exactly what my doctor was saying. How fortuitous that I bought it from you, what a year ago now or so. ~ Betsy W., Orinda
