Product Description
The first cookbook from best-selling author Jonny Bowden!Jonny Bowden's The Healthiest Meals on Earth contains recipes for more than sixty dishes and drinks that use nutritious and healthy cooking methods. Forty of these dishes will combine to create ten different "poly-meals", specially crafted meals that contain key nutrients found to promote long-term health. They include Sweet and Thai Spicy Shrimp and Fruits, Persian Chicken with Autumnal Accompaniments, and the "iron booster" of Tender Calf's Liver and Sweet Beets. A "Healthiest Holiday Meal" features Citrus Stuffed Turkey, Zippy Fruit Salsa, and Sweet Potato Pie. The poly-meals are designed to be eaten three-to-five times a week. Another ten recipes are not part of the poly-meal structure; instead they are one-pot meals that include Slow-Cooker Chicken Curry, Miso Bean Soup, and Venison Stew. A chapter on drinks will include nutritious smoothies, so-called "green drinks", and others. Jonny will provide healthy cooking tips throughout the book, as well as an analysis of the foods in each recipe. Side dishes, such as Cold Strawberry Soup and Veggie Slaw with Flax Oil, and desserts, such as Raw Chocolate Fondue, are also featured. This book pairs well with Bowden's successful 150 Healthiest Foods, and can even be used as a companion cookbook.

 Will satisfy any appetite and please even the most discerning of gourmet palates October 9, 2008
It is now commonly acknowledge that a fundamental key to a long and healthy life resides is to be found in our diets. Why we eat or drink can have either a beneficial or a deleterious effect on our lives and well being. In "The Healthiest Meals On Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth About what Meals To Eat And Why" by nationally recognized weight loss, nutrition and health expert Jonny Bowden (along with the assistance of board-certified holistic health counselor and nutrition educator Jeannette Bessinger) provides an impressive series of meals and recipes that are as healthy and nutritious as they are delicious and 'kitchen cook friendly'. Ranging from four-course 'polymeals', to one-pot polymeals with simple side dishes, to 'liquid polymeal' drinks, the meal menus and individual dishes are enhanced throughout with full-color photography. Of special note is that each recipe is provided with both prep-time and cook-time minutes and succinct 'Notes from the Kitchen' commentaries. An ideal reference for anyone wanting to eat healthy, "The Healthiest Meals On Earth" offers menus and dishes that will satisfy any appetite and please even the most discerning of gourmet palates.
A MUST for every kitchen September 27, 2008
Dr. Jonny Bowden has done it again. He's not only an engaging writer, but gets down to the nitty gritty of WHAT to eat and WHY. The Healthiest Meals on Earth is a HUGE milestone on the journey to health "assurance" not health "insurance". It's comforting to know that Dr. Bowden is in the forefront of the health industry with his books. Keep them coming!!
Another winner from Bowden September 8, 2008
I loved this book. Here's why: First of all, if you've read anything of Jonny Bowden's before, you know he has a great writing style, strong opinions, a huge amount of knowledge and he's funny. That alone should make anything he writes worth buying. But this book combines all that with some absolutely fantastic- and not difficult to make- recipes. It's kind of a combination cookbook- nutrition book, explaining why these ingredients were chosen in each recipe, why each meal was put together the way it was, and all the benefits you get from eating it. None of which would matter much if the recipes weren't so darn good. I mean, I'm no cook, and i can make them. It's not "doctrinaire"- just really good, original, clever uses of foods in really great combinations with a minimum of sugar and starch and a maximum of whole real foods. I haven't seen many cookbooks like this- hope they'll be more. Highly recommended!

I thought that it would be more like a cookbook. It doesn't need to be as large as it is to contain so few recipes.

After being glued to his book: The 150 Healthiest Foods On Earth, I went ahead and ordered The Healthiest Meals on Earth.
Having made a huge change in my own personal diet 3 years ago(after reading Ultrametabolism), after reading Jonny's 150 Healthiest Foods On Earth helped me tweak my diet that much more. But the problem at home has been that my wife doesn't know what to cook for me.
This book has recipies for incredible meals based on a solid foundation of real nutrition. Eating with your health goals in mind, you get meals power packed with healthful nutrients that are very appealing visually and pleasing to the olfactory senses (smell).
It's not just a recipe book, but an explanation of the foods and spices that make up the meal.
There are some wonderful charts in the book that cross reference various foods with their healthful benefits.
He does the same for healthful oils.
If you are big into nutrition, this and his "150 healthiest foods" book are essential for your library.
Whether you are eating because you want to just be healthy or you have a specific condition you want to target with the proper nutrition, this book is great.
The bottom line: Jonny Bowden's nutritional advice just makes sense!
Thank you again Dr. Bowden for another great masterpiece!!!
