Reviews

I have to say, it's one of the best cookbooks I've seen for a while - mainly because, as someone in my (late-ish) forties, it's actually specifically directed at *me*. -- Lucy Dunn * The Pool * ...rather than focusing on fads and fasting, the vibrant recipes champion a balanced diet with less sugar, better fat and good carbs. * BBC Good Food * No fads. No gimmicks. Just delicious, health-boosting food * Daily Mail * ...this fabulous cookbook cuts through the hype to offer a balanced diet for health needs of middle age. * The Lady *
