The Wellness Encyclopedia of Food and Nutrition Hardcover – September 29, 1992

As a Nutritionist, I find "The Wellness Encyclopedia of Food and Nutrition" is still the very best book of its kind. It is well organized, well written for understanding, is relevant for everyday use and is full of key nutritional needs for each food necessary for balanced nutrition. I often give this book as gifts to family and friends and they love it! I highly recommend this nutritional book for its comprehensive, simply to understand descriptions of what our everyday foods are composed of and why we need them.

The book "The Wellness Encyclopedia of Food and Nutrition" that we ordered arrived in the condition the seller said it was in and was packaged well. My husband's parents have one of these books. My daughter really liked it and wanted one for herself. It has a lot of information in it that she wanted. It is a good book for people who are interested in eating and living healthy. We were happy to find one on Amazon for her. Thankyou for making it possible to find things like this on-line. :)

When you let someone borrow this book, you'll be buying another to replace yours.

When a friend introduced me to "The Wellness Encyclopedia of Food and Nutrition", I was excited to have it as part of my library! The book contains many insightful facts, shopping hints, storage advice, and preparation tips! Unfortunately, upon further browsing of it's pages, I could not find some of the vegetables I want to research. As a future Doctorate of Nutrition, owning literal resources is very important to me. Make no mistake, it is far from "a waste of money". The book continues to be very educational for both family and friends. If, by chance, this encyclopedia does not contain the food you are looking for, then you'll have to find additional research elsewhere; I strongly encourage all of you to have this informative material in your home.

I have had this book for years and I use it often as a reference for selection, storage, preparation, and nutritional information of a variety of foods. I wish they would write an updated version -- if they did I would definitely purchase it. I recently purchased this book from Amazon to give as a gift, even though it is out of print.

This is probably one of the best books I've ever bought on food. It helps when I have a new food as it provides nutrition info, how to buy, store, prepare, etc. I have relied on this book over the years and recently bought another copy for my college-bound daughter. Truly a must-have book for every home!

The “nutritional label” for Mother Nature’s products. MY GO TO REFERENCE!

This book has a lot of information on pretty much every natural food you can eat. I only gave four stars because I thought it would have more nutritional information for each food which is what I was looking for. Other than that it has some good info for preparing the different foods.
