When we talk about nutrition, everybody is included in this discussion. A common saying with a heavy meaning goes, "You're what you eat." We can all agree obesity has escalated in the last several decades, especially in modern America. What changed or continues to change?

Lifestyle diseases have caused more physical, mental and emotional disorders than parasitic illnesses like malaria. Left, right, and center, we have diabetes, high blood pressure, clogging of the blood vessels, and cardiovascular diseases. If possible, replace those midnight brownies with fruits or something equally healthy.

In Eating for energy, Steve Edmond takes us through ways to feed on healthy foods, achieve your desired weight, cut on junk, and in the long run, maintain a healthy lifestyle. Unhealthy foods like sodas ultimately lead to obesity. Obesity leads to heart and respiratory complications, sleep apnea, gallstones, etc. In retrospect, if we avoid junk foods, obesity and lifestyle diseases become minimal. It's a win-win situation.

Also, the author gives some life hacks to reduce unhealthy foods. For instance, you can avoid taking routes that sell junk foods. Plus, one can carry a bottle of water and sip when junk cravings kick in. We learn that weight loss is not a sudden change. Instead, those looking to drop a few pounds should seek the best diet plans that work for them. Balancing calorie intake and physical workouts come in handy!

I learned and enjoyed many lessons. Did you know those television ads on pizzas and burgers can help trigger your brain to want a bite of that junk food? Also, food portions matter to the body. An example is choosing a smaller plate when serving your food to minimize the portions. Steve then discusses different workouts to help you achieve a specific objective. You'll learn we have various body exercises. Workouts for the core are different from those for weight loss.

However, while the installment is a valuable guide on matters to do with nutrition, I noted many grammatical errors. I was disappointed because some flaws were as avoidable as beginning sentences with small letters. Therefore, Eating for energy is not professionally edited. Plus, I noted a repetitive trend throughout. Those are the things I disliked about the book. A thorough revision will solve these editorial hiccups. I rate it 3 out of 5 stars. I recommend it to anyone looking to implement nutritional changes for a better and healthier body.

I'm sorry to hear that the presentation left something to be desired. With so many books on healthy eating on the market, it's important to stand out. Nevertheless, thanks for your thorough review!
