Great for Teaching Nutrition!

I am writing a unit plan on nutrition for 6th grade and this book is an awesome addition to my supporting teaching materials!

Informative and Easy to Read

This is a book that is easy to read, and its easy to understand. The book is broken down in 5 sections; Questions that Should Come First, Questions about Food and Good Health, Quesitons about When Things Go Wrong, Questions About Food Safety, and Questions about Food as Medicine. This book is not written from a perspective such as a health food book might have, but its more middle of the road.The book uses pictures as well as illustrations when certain topics are discussed. The book answers questions about lactose intolerance, caffine in sodas, food poisoning, and much more. Its actually very informative on many different subjects. If you are looking for this book for one particular area, this isn't the book for you. While it has an appendex that is large and full of other sources this book is best at giving small analysis on many different areas.
