3.How high-cholesterol diets promote good health
4.How saturated fats protect the heart
5.How rich sauces help you digest and assimilate your food
6.Why grains and legumes need special preparation to provide optimum benefits
7.About enzyme-enhanced food and beverages that can provide increased energy and vitality
8.Why high-fiber, lowfat diets can cause vitamin and mineral deficiencies
Topics include the health benefits of traditional fats and oils (including butter and coconut oil); dangers of vegetarianism; problems with modern soy foods; health benefits of sauces and gravies; proper preparation of whole grain products; pros and cons of milk consumption; easy-to-prepare enzyme enriched condiments and beverages; and appropriate diets for babies and children.
