Jacques Pepin

Wouldn't it be great if we could make sense of the mass of nutritional information, often contradictory, that bombards us nowadays? Think of how invaluable it would be to have basic distinct guidelines that explain how eating fruits and vegetables can help to prevent disease and show us how to incorporate them without fuss into our daily fare.
This is precisely what the Strang Cancer Prevention Center provides in this book, and as a chef, home cook, and someone interested in good food and health, I am indebted to Laura Pensiero, Dr. Susan Oliveria, and Dr. Michael Osborne for providing us with the essential tools to better our lives and the lives of our family members and friends.
