Knowledge of (Delicious) Eating (Part 1), Rineke Dijkinga

After 15 years of practical experience as a naturopath and orthomolecular physician, author Rineke Dijkinga had only one goal: to make people aware of their own ability to become healthier through nutrition. This resulted in this book, which has since become a classic in the world of honest and healthy eating. The book offers a behind-the-scenes look at both our body and nutrition, so you understand what your body needs and what you should avoid. The basis is simple: prepare your own food and enrich it with wholesome ingredients, herbs and spices, so that every meal has a health benefit. A message that aligns seamlessly with the philosophy of 't Lof der Kruiden. Practically, this translates into more than 125 delicious, pure and easy-to-prepare recipes for every time of day: breakfast, lunch, main course, dessert and snacks. With each recipe you will find background information about the ingredients and targeted health tips. The 54 pages of interesting facts cover topics such as how blood sugar levels work, the importance of antioxidants and bioactive substances, the choice for organic products, and the relationship between nutrition and complaints such as intestinal problems, overweight and lack of energy. This is now the 16th edition. From the 10th edition onwards, the book was thoroughly rewritten: recipes were given more variation options, the information was updated to the latest insights and research results, and the interesting facts were greatly expanded. A book that grows with science.
