WW Norton & Co Wake/Sleep: What to Eat and Do for More Energy
Book SynopsisFilled with recipes for food and DIY health and beauty treatments, Wake/Sleep is two books in one: one half has advice and tips on staying alert and energetic, but turn the book over and discover the best ways to calm down, relax and fall asleep. Caffeine features heavily on the Wake side but eucalyptus and citrus are fascinating and stimulating alternatives. Recipes span from the perfect bulletproof coffee—the added fat slows down the body’s absorption of the caffeine for a smoother buzz—to Matcha Mint Gummies and Chocolate Stout Chili. On the Sleep side, calm your body and mind with sweet potatoes, pumpkin and calcium and magnesium-rich foods, with recipes including Peppermint Tea Latte, Lemon-Lime Avo Mousse and Banana Pudding. DIY Coffee Body Scrub will energise even the most reluctant morning person and, when it’s time to wind down, a calming Yogurt Bath Soak will promote relaxation.

WW Norton & Co The Green Barbecue: Vegan & Vegetarian Recipes to
Book SynopsisIf you thought “meat-free” and “barbecue” were opposing concepts, think again: Rukmini Iyer’s collection of delicious grill recipes is delightfully plant-based. As a vegetarian, Iyer is always crafting knockout veggie-centered dishes that highlight the unique flavors and textures of plant-based cooking. At the grill, her creativity comes to life, from appetizers and salads to hearty mains and sweet treats. Her showstopping vegan and vegetarian BBQ dishes will take any cookout from standard to standout. Whether you’re looking for light bites, barbecuing on the go, preparing a flexitarian feast, or simply broadening your BBQ horizons, these recipes are simple and simply fantastic. Iyer’s menu includes: Griddled Cherries with Warm Goat Cheese, Crispy Barbecue Tofu Lettuce Wraps, Simple Sage & Onion Cannellini Burgers, Cinnamon Griddled Pineapple, and more. Complete with vibrant photos and inventive tips for using leftovers, this is a must-have for the plant-obsessed home cook.Trade Review"Iyer (The Green Roasting Tin) fires up her grilling game to “open up the world of cooking and eating outdoors” in this excellent assemblage of plant-based recipes. Allaying concerns that grilling vegetables or fruits leads to mushy, burned results, Iyer offers a practical approach to cooking over direct heat. While she personally advocates for the “fire factor” of charcoal grilling and the smoky characteristics it imparts (and offers tips to maximize flavor, like adding dry eucalyptus to the flames), she also celebrates the ease of cooking with temperature-controlled gas grills. Appetizers run the globally inspired gamut from crispy gnocchi on a stick dressed with vegan pesto to jerk cauliflower wings with a yogurt-based blue cheese dip. Fresh light bites offer “summer on a plate” with Moroccan-inspired charred halloumi with red peppers, artichokes, and preserved lemon, while heftier dishes—such as sweet potatoes with rosemary, lemon, and black beans—lean on hearty vegetables and starches robust enough to take center stage. Barbecued tofu saves the day as a satisfying meat substitute in such dishes as Vietnamese grilled tofu, while feta serves as the savory sidekick to grilled fruits. In a nod to Iyer’s Indian heritage, homemade naan gets served up three ways—most appealingly in a version that employs grated beets for an alluring hue. With minimal fuss and maximum flavor, this brings the heat to veggie-forward cooking." -- Publishers Weekly

Robert D. Reed Publishers In Pursuit of Health and Longevity: Wellness
Book SynopsisFor the past 34 years, best-selling author Cal Samra, age 87, has been the editor of a national humor newsletter called The Joyful Noiseletter directed mainly to churches and health professionals. Health, physical fitness, and longevity have been the author's longstanding interests during his years as an Associated Press and newspaper reporter, and as the lay executive director of the Huxley Institute for Biosocial Research, a medical research foundation. But he says he owes his health and longevity to the teachings of the many health pioneers, from long-ago centuries to the present, who are featured in this book. For the book, this award-winning health and humor historian researched and treaded into the history and teachings of many health pioneers down through the centuries: religious figures of all faith traditions, medical doctors, nurses, health professionals, counselors, agnostic philosophers, bodybuilders, professional athletes, dietitians, and nutritionists, and rediscovered their admonitions on health and longevity which have long since been forgotten or ignored. Starting with the Hebrew prophet Daniel (circa 620 B.C.), he then proceeded down through the centuries to Jesus, the third-century Greek physicians, the Franciscans, John Wesley, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Ellen White, Sojourner Truth, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, the Hindu Swami Vivekanada, Teddy Roosevelt, George Bernard Shaw, Catherine Doherty, Linus Pauling, Jack LaLanne, Dr. Donald L. Cooper, M.D., Dr. Rex Russell, M.D., Patch Adams, M.D., Dr. Mehmet Oz, M.D., Etta Dale Hornsteiner, professional athletes like Tom Brady, and Serena and Venus Williams, Bob Hope, and many others. All of them were extraordinary men and women from numerous faith and philosophical traditions. They were Jewish, Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Protestant, Hindu, Buddhist, Moslem, and agnostic, African-Americans, Native Americans, and Mexican Americans. Many were immigrants or the children of immigrants. Some were conservatives and some were liberals, but they all had a zest for life and a meeting of minds on living a healthy lifestyle. It is amazing how much they agreed upon. Many of these men and women regarded themselves, or were regarded, as health reformers. Their basic advice on living a healthy lifestyle was generally the same: eat fresh, natural, nutritional foods in moderation, exercise your body regularly, get sufficient sleep, keep your faith and your sense of humor, and strive to be a loving, caring, giving and forgiving person. The focus of all these health reformers was living a healthy lifestyle. Many of these health pioneers were ignorant of the work and views of their predecessors, or chose to ignore them. It is altogether human to be reluctant to give credit to individuals outside one's own faith or philosophical tradition. But ironically, some of the research of modern science is confirming the views of these prophetic health pioneers. This book is the first book to attempt to trace the history of health pioneers, both religious and secular, down through the centuries, and to introduce them to readers. It is indexed and designed to be a resource book for medical doctors, nurses, chaplains, pastors, counselors, nutritionists, physical therapists, body-buildings, editors, comedians, clowns and anyone wishing to live a healthier and longer life. Samra pleads with religious organizations to pay more attention to the pollution of our air, water, and food supply, which is eroding the health of people and congregations. "While you are teaching people how to get to Heaven, how about teaching them healthy lifestyles to survive on this earth?" he asks. Several of the cartoons from The Joyful Noiseletter have been reprinted in this book.Table of ContentsAuthorâs Note Chapter 1 Daniel â of Lentils and Lions Chapter 2 The Physically Fit Christ Chapter 3 The âUnmercenary Greek Physiciansâ Chapter 4 The Merry Franciscans Chapter 5 Martin Luther â âYou have as much laughter as you have faithâ Chapter 6 John Wesley and Ben Franklin â Two Warriors for Good Health Chapter 7 The 19th-Century Health Reformation Chapter 8 Teddy Roosevelt, George Bernard Shaw and Other 20th-Century Health Reformers Chapter 9 The Modern Prevention-Minded Doctors Chapter 10 The Healthy Centenarians Chapter 11 Overdosing on Sugar Chapter 12 The Physiology of Madness Chapter 13 How to Avoid Alzheimer's Chapter 14 The Genetically Engineered 'Frankenfoods' and Environmental Pollution Chapter 15 The Mothers' Reformation - a Meeting of Minds Chapter 16 Medicinal Herbs for Your Mind and Body Chapter 17 The Loneliness of the Dining Room Table Chapter 18 The Ten Commandments for Health Chapter 19 The Enlightened Athletes Chapter 20 In Pursuit of Health and Happiness Chapter 21 God Made the Body to Be Used â So Use it!
