"Here's...a highly recommendable new book, Feed Your Family Right, by registered dietitian Elisa Zied...Zied's advice about food choices and portion control will be familiar to anyone who follows nutrition trends, but her whole-family approach is fresh and sensible. With about 40 recipes and lots of practical advice, this would be an excellent resource for any parent trying to understand his or her own eating issues and get the kids off to a better start."

Whether you're a new mom, have a baby on the way, or are the parent of teenagers, you're sure to find Feed Your Family Right! How to Make Smart Food and Fitness Choices for a Healthy Lifestyle to be a one-stop resource for your entire family.

Feed Your Family Right! will teach you how to:

  • understand the role of heredity and genes in body weight (you'll use this information to create realistic personal and family food and fitness goals)

  • balance your food and fitness choices and attitudes—and pass them down to your kids

  • support one another to create and maintain your new, healthful behaviors for life (and learn to deal with various family members including food cops, picky eaters, food pushers, and relentless ranters)

  • manage or prevent diet-related conditions including type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and metabolic syndrome

  • eat healthfully and mindfully at home and in sit-down and fast-food restaurants, and make better selections when you grab food on the go

  • increase your fitness level and incorporate more fun and physical activity into your family life

  • improve your overall health, body weight, and appearance

  • make more healthful choices and at the same time, enjoy the eating experience

Feed Your Family Right! is based on the latest science on food and weight management. It is also based on Elisa's extensive work for more than a decade counseling individuals and families. Having grown up overweight, and understanding first hand the challenges of feeding her own family, Elisa's own personal experiences make this book highly relatable. Instead of a one-diet-fits-all approach, Feed Your Family Right! provides specific tips for each family member—including pregnant women, infants, children, men, and seniors. It also provides 35 mouth-watering family-tested recipes, as well as 2 weeks of menus that can be adapted to individual family members. Feed Your Family Right! will help you and each member of your family discover how to make more sensible choices, feel good about your bodies, and become healthy eaters who enjoy food, fitness, and life.
