What to do with a Food Reference Book

If you really want to get a handle on a healthy diet, you need to become more familiar with the foods you eat. Of what nutritional value is a potato? Mushrooms? Fish? Is one variety better than another? What does potassium do for your health? There’s one easy way to find out. Get a good food facts reference book. 

There are many good books, written mainly by nutritionists and nutrition researchers. You’ll find a variety of formats and presentations. Choose one which is organized in a manner that’s easy for you to use. Almost all such food fact reference books are written in layman’s language – you don’t have to be a scientist to understand the material.
