Best Choice; Alaskan Wild Salmon
Salmon
is an all-around nutritional rock star. High in protein, it is a rich
source of selenium, which is critical to your thyroid, and vitamin D,
which helps preserve muscle. But the main reason it's my preferred
choice of animal protein is its very high level of omega-3 fats.
Omega-3s regulate your heart rhythm, decrease blood clotting, dilate
your blood vessels, decrease your blood pressure and triglycerides, and
fight inflammation. Yu need to eat only two servings of salmon a wek to
cut your risk of heart disease dramatically. |
The recipes for classsic favorites like pizza, waffles, brownies, and pasta as well as conventionally "healthy" omelets, soups, salads, sandwiches, fish, beef, chicken, and vegetarian dishes are accompanied by per serving calorie counts and nutritional details on protein, carbs, fats, and sodium.

"The
Master Recipes here and the eating strategies given are designed to
make healthy-in-a-hurry cooking simple and cost-effective," Michaels
explains.
"There are no extraneous steps or ingredients that take up time or cost
crazy money. Many of these recipes are meat-free or allow you to omit
meat if you're a vegetarian or just looking to save money.". |
|
Although based on the dietary principles outlined in Master Your Metabolism, this cookbook stands on its own and doesn't
require the earlier book to be understood or employed in the kitchen.
Opening chapters ("the what and the why") recap the basic tenets of
Michaels' approach to dieting and fitness.
