At the relatively young age of 26, Adam Hart felt he had hit rock bottom. As he describes it, he was "living in an overweight body, extremely stressed and experiencing depression and anxiety attacks." He was also suffering with asthma and had developed an allergy to fresh fruit. Already feeling that he was living off medications, he had just been prescribed another drug, this time for high cholesterol. In the doctor's office, he was then told he was pre-diabetic. Adam puts his situation down to having spent most of his life up to that point as a human "doing" rather than a human "being." He decided then and there, in that doctor's office, to completely turn his lifestyle and his health around. Five years after embarking on a "journey of self-discovery," Adam is proof of what making a real commitment to personal health and wellbeing can look like. He has lost over 40 pounds, reversed his pre-diabetic state and eliminated his daily depression, saying that he now lives his life with "abundant health and happiness." In The Power of Food, Adam shows us how we can also achieve "abundant health and happiness" by eating foods with power. Power foods--whole, natural foods such as nuts, seeds, grains, legumes and beans, fruit and vegetables--are packed with nutrients and vitamins. The Power of Food shows us how to prepare and cook these foods-- simply--to make delicious meals. Much more than a collection of recipes, this book contains detailed profiles of 24 key power ingredients from each food group, for example, "The Power Nuts" (pistachios, almonds, pecans and cashews). With their whimsical titles and fresh takes on traditional favourites, the recipes in this book are sure to appeal: Outrageous Olive Tapenade Hungry Hungry Hummus Nude Pad Thai Oh My, Kale Gomae! Just Do It Hemp Milk That's An Amazing Strawberry Cheesecake Complemented by Adam's personal story as well as a thorough explanation of how to put your own The Power of Food plan into place, this book is both inspirational and practical. A must-have book, whether you want to turn your lifestyle and health around completely, like Adam, or just start taking steps to do so.

Following on from his bestselling cookbook The Guilt-Free Gourmet, chef Jordan Bourke is back in the kitchen dishing up more of his signature indulgent yet ‘guilt free’ food. Forget about fasting and denial, The Natural Food Kitchen is a new approach to food and cooking, proving that wholesome food does not have to be bland and unexciting. Showcasing fresh and wholefood ingredients, Jordan’s recipes offer vibrant, seasonal dishes that are made using naturally healthy alternatives to refined flours, fats and sugar cane, so there is no missing out. The emphasis is on healthy everyday food for everyday people, using wholesome alternatives to refined ingredients, rather than ruling out food groups entirely. The result is a mouth-watering collection of classical and globally-inspired recipes with an innovative healthy twist. These everyday dishes will have a broad appeal, from parents looking for new and healthy recipes to eat with their family and friends, to the modern foodie, who knows good food, travels far and wide and places just as much importance on their health and well being, as they do on taste and instant gratification. From abundant salads, using only the best seasonal produce, to sustainably caught fish and meat dishes using exotic herbs and spices inspired by Jordan’s travels, and indulgent desserts that no one would ever believe are nutritious, this cookbook aims to satisfy the ever-increasing demand for food that is not just beautiful to look at and delicious to eat, but good for you as well.

When it comes to food, Americans seem to have a pretty great deal. Our grocery stores are overflowing with countless varieties of convenient products. But like most bargains that are too good to be true, the modern food system relies on an illusion. It depends on endless abundance, but the planet has its limits. So too does a healthcare system that must absorb rising rates of diabetes and obesity. So too do the workers who must labor harder and faster for less pay. Through beautifully-told stories from around the world, Kevin Walker reveals the unintended consequences of our myopic focus on quantity over quality. A trip to a Costa Rica plantation shows how the Cavendish banana became the most common fruit in the world and also one of the most vulnerable to disease. Walker’s early career in agribusiness taught him how pressure to sell more and more fertilizer obscured what that growth did to waterways. His family farm illustrates how an unquestioning belief in “free markets” undercut opportunity in his hometown. By the end of the journey, we not only understand how the drive to produce ever more food became hardwired into the American psyche, but why shifting our mindset is essential. It starts, Walker argues, with remembering that what we eat affects the wider world. If each of us decides that bigger isn’t always better, we can renegotiate the grand food bargain, one individual decision at a time.
