The Fat Flush Cookbook - Book Review

BY ANN LOUISE GITTLEMAN; MCGRAW-HILL; $19.95

Gittleman, a nutritionist, believes that certain foods flush fat out of our bodies, improving our overall health by helping us detox and lose weight. The more than 200 recipes in her new cookbook are based on these special "fat-flushing foods," which include cranberries, flaxseeds, lean protein, lemons, and stevia (an herbal sweetener). Many of the recipes are easy to prepare and look delicious, like Rosemary Cloves Grilled Chicken with Yogurt Sauce. Designed to complement her bestselling book, The Fat Flush Plan, and to introduce healthy cooking to novice cooks, Gittleman's book also suggests ways to add fat-flushing food to your existing diet. Her rundown of the therapeutic and culinary benefits of her favorite 25 cooking herbs makes a perfect introduction to her popular nutritional philosophy.
