Cooking for Your Genes ebok

Taking control of your nutrition has never been easier Inflammation, detoxification, energy production and risk for chronic disease are reliant on our genes, environment and our lifestyle choices. Our genetic code is unique to us, and even though we're expected to all function the same way biologically, we simply don't. In Cooking for Your Genes, expert nutrigenomic practitioner Debbi Nathan and chef Helen Nathan demystify the biological functions within our bodies and explain how what we eat plays a vital role in our personal health. Food 'talks' to our genes and understanding how they interact is the key to preventing illness, slowing cell degeneration, combatting chronic conditions and promoting overall health and wellbeing. Featuring over 65 simple, fuss-free recipes packed with flavour, Cooking for Your Genes combines proven nutritional science with everyday ingredients, including a starter kit of ingredients to keep in your larder. Start the day with the orange and date fruit salad or spinach, salmon and feta hot cakes. For main meals, try southern polenta-and-flaxseed chicken wings, spicy Sichuan ginger prawns or Mexican quinoa salad with orange and lime dressing. For snacks, there's beetroot tzatziki and turmeric and ginger cookies, or try a pomegranate slushy to quench your thirst. Discover how to personalise your nutrition, empower yourself to better understand why certain foods are better for you, and eat to live a healthier life.
