Park Salma

Maison d'édition: Selecto

Synopsis

A healthy and balanced diet is what allows the body to function optimally. To achieve this, it is essential that it is based on foods that promote the proper functioning of the body and prevent diseases related to food, such as obesity or cardiovascular problems. For this reason, experts recommend that the diet be part of a healthy lifestyle, be rich in foods of plant origin and fiber and, on the contrary, be low in fat of animal origin, sweets and high-calorie products.

From a leading nutrition researcher, this diet book offers easy to follow guidance and meal plans so you can lose the weight and keep it off—without depriving yourself the way other diets require. As a society, we keep looking for ways to lose weight—preferably ones that are simple, effective, and permanent. When properly  chosen, certain foods cause weight loss, with no need for the restriction and planning that most weight-loss regimens require.   In The Power Foods Diet, Dr. Neal Barnard reveals three breakthroughs that are supported by research, revealing that certain foods:  1.  Reduce the appetite  2.  Trap calories so they are flushed away and cannot be absorbed 3.  Increase the body’s ability to burn calories for three hours after meals.   These breakthroughs make weight loss incredibly easy, without calorie counting or deprivation. Dr. Barnard also reveals that some of the foods we think are good for us can actually be harmful, like salmon, goat cheese, and coconut oil, all of which pass easily into body fat and often overstay their welcome. The Power Foods Diet will help you to eat delicious foods and simultaneously lose weight. Dr. Barnard includes a simple to follow meal plan that includes delicious, and even indulgent recipes that include foods we have often been told to avoid, so you can eat real food, and still lose real weight.

The Absinthe Forger - A True...

Evan Rail

Absinthe, an elixir made of alcohol and herbs, is a booming business. Yet it is still an underground culture, associated with mystery, romance, and bohemian lifestyles, in keeping with its popularity among the writers, artists, and other ne'er-do-wells. First produced in eighteenth century, the spirit, known as "the Green Fairy," was banned worldwide by 1914 before the bans were gradually overturned beginning in 2005, the year Switzerland relegalized absinthe. 
 
 
 
Enter a bon vivant who inveigles his way into the private Facebook groups where the modern absinthe demimonde converges and charms some of the best minds (and palates) in the beverage world into thinking that he was selling them precious vintage pre-ban bottles. How did he get away with it? 
 
 
 
The Absinthe Forger pieces together the forger's subterfuge and motivation. It shows how absinthe can transform a person—and even connect drinkers with a deeper, often hidden sense of self. Rail digs deep into the modern absinthe underground, whose members are still frantic to find the last remaining bottles of pre-ban absinthe, and he visits modern producers of the spirit, who have, in a generation, changed in status from daring criminal bootleggers to sought-after celebrities. The Absinthe Forger is a bizarre crime drama that will make you never look at wormwood in the same way again.
