In Sugar Crush, he offers a unique holistic approach to understanding the exacting toll sugar and carbs take on the body. Based on his clinical work, he breaks down his highly effective methods, showing how dietary changes reducing sugar and wheat, coinciding with an increase of good fats, can dramatically help regenerate nerves and rehabilitate their normal function.

  The Secret History of Food -...

  Matt Siegel

  An irreverent, surprising, and entirely entertaining look at the little-known history surrounding the foods we know and love 
   
  Is Italian olive oil really Italian, or are we dipping our bread in lamp oil? Why are we masochistically drawn to foods that can hurt us, like hot peppers? Far from being a classic American dish, is apple pie actually . . . English? 
  “As a species, we’re hardwired to obsess over food,” Matt Siegel explains as he sets out “to uncover the hidden side of everything we put in our mouths.” Siegel also probes subjects ranging from the myths—and realities—of food as aphrodisiac, to how one of the rarest and most exotic spices in all the world (vanilla) became a synonym for uninspired sexual proclivities, to the role of food in fairy- and morality tales. He even makes a well-argued case for how ice cream helped defeat the Nazis. 
  The Secret History of Food is a rich and satisfying exploration of the historical, cultural, scientific, sexual, and, yes, culinary subcultures of this most essential realm. Siegel is an armchair Anthony Bourdain, armed not with a chef’s knife but with knowledge derived from medieval food-related manuscripts, ancient Chinese scrolls, and obscure culinary journals. Funny and fascinating, The Secret History of Food is essential reading for all foodies. 
  Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

  For twenty-five years, Alice Waters and her friends at Chez Panisse in Berkeley, California have dedicated themselves to the ideal of serving the finest, freshest foods with simplicity and style. From tender baby asparagus in early spring, to the colorful spectrum of peppers at the height of summer; crisp, leafy chicories in autumn, to sweet butternut squash in the dark of winter, much of the inspiration about what to put on the menu comes from the high quality produce Waters and her chefs seek out year-round.Using the treasures from the earth, Chez Panisse Vegetables offers endless possibilities for any occasion. Try Grilled Radicchio Risotto with Balsamic Vinegar at your next dinner party, or Pizza with Red and Yellow Peppers for a summer evening at home. Why not forgo green-leaf lettuce, and opt for Artichoke and Grapefruit Salad drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil? Or serve Corn Cakes with fresh berries for breakfast instead of cereal?Throughout Vegetables, Waters shares her energy and enthusiasm for what she describes as "living foods." When she first began in the restaurant business, the selection of good-quality vegetables was so limited that she found herself searching out farmers with whom she might do business. Luckily, today's explosion of markets and organic farms across the country ensures that any home cook can find freshly harvested produce to put on the table. And with the increased popularity of home gardening, more and more people are taking their vegetables straight from the earth and into the kitchen.Cooks, gardeners, vegetarians and everyone who appreciates good food will find Chez Panisse Vegetables to be not only a cookbook, but a valuable resource for selecting and serving fine produce. From popular vegetables like corn, tomatoes and carrots, to more unusual selections like chard, amaranth greens and sorrel, Vegetables offers detailed information about the seasonal availability, proper look, flavor and preparation of each selection. Arranged alphabetically by vegetable, and filled with colorful linocut images, Chez Panisse Vegetables makes it easy for a cook to find a tempting recipe for whatever he or she has brought home from the market.

  A beautifully illustrated collection of 100 easy-to-prepare recipes laced with thoughtful reflections on cooking and life. 
   
  Have you ever noticed how the words that describe the cooking process also resonate in a more meaningful way to describe the very act of living? Stirring, blending, mixing, and measuring are terms that apply to how we live as well as how we cook. Bestselling cookbook author Roxie Kelley takes this correlation to heart and pairs her observations on life in and outside the kitchen with Kathleen Taylor’s distinctive bright, whimsical folk artwork inside Stir My Soul. 
   
  From a Rustic Vegetable Breakfast Bake and Chunky Chicken Salad Sandwiches to Sweet and Sour Pork Chops, White Cheddar Potato Pancakes, and Roxie’s Favorite One Bowl Chocolate Chip Cookies, Stir My Soul presents more than 100 recipes alongside definitions of cooking terms and how those words translate to life experiences. As Roxie explains, “The words that describe actions required in cooking are the same ones that make up daily life: my family and friends are part of my “fold,” I “measure” my words when speaking to my children . . . all these life activities, like good recipes, lead to a satisfying result just like a completed dish or favorite dessert.” Consider Stir My Soul a coming to terms with terms, if you will—a collection of recipes certain to nourish your body and stir your soul.
