Good recipes

My wife saw an ad for this book in a magazine. We ordered it and she lost almost 30 lbs in 3-4 months just by changing our regular meals to whole grains. I do admit that in my opinion whole grain items do not have the taste appeal that 'white' items do (white bread, plain spaghetti, regular pasta etc...) but if you want to lose a few pounds, the book contains recipes that make whole wheat stuff taste decent. Oh, when I said she just changed our food to whole grain, that is what I mean. She didn't increase her exercises or anything, just changed to whole grain.

Healthy Lifestyle Choices

The Whole Grain Diet Miracle is a good introduction to whole grains. If you want to control your weight, reduce the risk of serious illness and lower your blood pressure, then this book gives you the basics for a healthy lifestyle. The grains discussed include: Amaranth, Barley, Buckwheat, Corn, Kamut, Millet, Oats, Quinoa, Rice, Rye, Sorghum, Spelt, Teff, Triticale, Wheat and Farro. Throughout the book the authors explain how to buy, store and cook each grain. They also explain why you get more vitamins from whole grains. For the first third of the book the authors also spend time convincing you of needed lifestyle changes. Unlike other books I've read on this subject, they still allow you to use sugar in your recipes. It is good to know that if you are eating oats and two pieces of whole wheat bread you are on your way to a healthier lifestyle. However, this book also has fifty unique recipes to choose from. There are also weight loss menus for six weeks. Some of the recipes include: Amaranth Chicken Salad with Tarragon and Almonds Barley and Mushroom Soup with Zucchini Hearty Millet and Butternut Squash Soup Cornmeal-Crusted Oven-Fried Chicken Fingers Barley with Leeks and Fennel While this book has detailed information and recipes, you can also use the list of whole grains to select healthier choices at the grocery store. You may want to look for puffed cereals and soups in the healthy foods section or health food store. Some grains take a long time to cook and therefore may be easier to eat when they have already been prepared. I've found these grains to be quite easy to find in the grocery store and especially at the health food store. ~The Rebecca Review
