Book Review~~Eat this and Live


Written by: Don Colbert, MD with
Joseph A. Cannizzaro, MD

This book is colorful, eye catching and FULL of information regarding a healthy life style.  This has been something we have been working on for a few weeks now.  We have been using this as a health class for our kids.

This book is like a road map on feeding your children healthy nutritious foods from birth through elementary age.  It is also good for those who want to go back and learn healthy eating all over again.  I know this has been good for our family.  In this day and age we are all feeding our families processed foods and drive thru. 

We are blessed that for the most part our children will try anything we put in front of them.  We have tried from a very early age to teach them to at least try something...most of the time they liked what they tried.  This book showed me the importance of teaching the children to read food labels.  The shorter the ingredient list the better the food was (most of the time).  We believe in getting our children involved in the food decisions...it helps them develop healthy habits later in life.  This book is a great addition to any family!!
