A book for the holidays? It is called ” Mangia Smart ” (Mondadori ed.) And is the book written by the most famous nutritionist on the web, Dr. Maria Papavasileiou . Which, after the great success of its fb page, Personalized Diet , has collected a series of very useful tips for a delicious cookbook in order to teach its readers the ways to a correct nutritional education, so that food is true nourishment. , and that the risks of serious diseases are reduced starting from a healthy diet. At the center of the book, love for nature on the table, through secrets to make certain foods (legumes) more digestible to combine others so that you can better assimilate nutrients, to eat more fiber, fruit and vegetables.

I recommend it in particular to those who have children and to those who consider vegetables “a side dish” that if it is missing from time to time nothing happens: with the recipes of doctor Papavasileiou, you can instead eat delicious and healthy dishes , making fruit and vegetables and cereals integrate the heart of our daily diet

Let’s take a closer look at what Eat Smart is about : the book begins with a chapter in which the doctor explains what it means to eat smart or smart, and reveals her method. Low glycemic index foods, such as whole grains, scheduled meals and dried fruit snacks are at the heart of Dr. Maria Papavasileiou’s method. Then the doctor explains how to get the best from food, in order to assimilate all the ingredients: how to cook vegetables better, and with what seasoning? How to prevent legumes from causing us to have a swollen belly? Can we indulge in some fried food?

The book will make it very easy for you to stay on a diet or even just stay in perfect health: spices, algae and herbs are recommended with a simple classification of their properties.
Finally, the Mangia Smart cookbook , divided into salty, sweet and anti-swelling recipes. For anti-bloating recipes, check out this one , yummy and foolproof! Among the desserts, I am pleased to point out the presence of very easy and truly delicious desserts made with raw ingredients, such as dates, nuts, fruit, seeds, coconut.
I will use some of the doctor’s recipes not only in everyday nutrition, but also for a vegan evening with friends, in order to recommend the book to some friends!
