  Fruit Diet - The Benefits of...

  A fruit diet, also known as a fruitarian diet, primarily consists of consuming raw fruits and may also include nuts, seeds, and some vegetables. This diet emphasizes the consumption of raw fruits, varying in strictness but generally focusing on fruits while excluding or limiting other food groups such as grains, meat, and dairy. Some variations of the diet allow for the consumption of nuts, seeds, and certain vegetables. 
    
  One of the main benefits of a fruit diet is the high nutrient intake. Fruits are rich in essential vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and dietary fiber. Additionally, fruits are generally low in calories and high in fiber, which can aid in weight management. The high water content in many fruits contributes to better hydration, and the fiber promotes healthy digestion and regular bowel movements. 
    
  However, there are potential risks associated with a fruit diet. Relying solely on fruits can lead to deficiencies in protein, fats, vitamin B12, iron, calcium, and other essential nutrients. The high sugar content in fruits, though natural, can be problematic for individuals with blood sugar management issues. The acids and sugars in fruits can also contribute to dental erosion and cavities. A restrictive diet may lead to boredom and difficulty in maintaining the diet long-term.

  The Dish - The Story of One...

  “A thorough, lively work of on-the-ground reportage. ... Friedman shares a remarkable story."" —Wall Street Journal 
  Acclaimed “chef writer” Andrew Friedman introduces readers to all the people and processes that come together in a single restaurant dish, creating an entertaining, vivid snapshot of the contemporary restaurant community, modern farming industry, and food-supply chain.  
  On a typical evening, in a contemporary American restaurant, a table orders their dinner from a server. It’s an exchange that happens dozens, or hundreds, of times a night—the core transaction that keeps the place churning. In this book, acclaimed chef writer Andrew Friedman slows down time to focus on a single dish at Chicago’s Wherewithall restaurant, following its production and provenances via real-time kitchen and in-the-field reportage, from the moment the order is placed to when the finished dish is delivered to the table. 
  As various components of this one dish are prepared by the kitchen team, Friedman introduces readers to the players responsible for producing it, from the chefs who conceived the dish and manage the kitchen, to the line cooks and sous chefs who carry out the actual cooking, and the dishwashers who keep pace with the dining room. 
  Readers will also meet the producers, farmers, and ranchers, who supply the restaurant, as Friedman visits each stop in the supply chain and profiles the key characters whose expertise and effort play essential roles in making the dish possible—they will walk rows of crops that line Midwestern farms, feel the chill of the cooler where beef dry-ages, harvest grapes at a Michigan winery, ride along with a delivery-truck driver, and hear the immigration sagas prevalent amongst often unseen and unheralded farm and restaurant workers. 
  The Dish is a rollicking ride inside every aspect of a restaurant dish. Both a fascinating window onto our food systems, and a celebration of the unsung heroes of restaurants and the collaborative nature of professional kitchen work, The Dish will ensure that readers never look at any restaurant meal the same way again.  
  ""Masterful. ... Friedman excels at bringing the dining room to boisterous life with vivid, telling details. ... This will sate gastronomes and casual foodies alike."" — Publishers Weekly (starred review)
