This book is all about achieving, and maintaining, good health - essential if you want to live a long and happy life. Diet books that profess to do the same are ten-a-penny and are all variations of the same tired old theme. The 'Eating For a Long and Healthy Life' book is different.

We also evaluate more unusual methods of nutrition such as juicing and smoothies - as ever, there are pros and cons!
