SuperFoodsRx

This week I checked out the book SuperFoodsRx by Steven Pratt and Kathy Matthews from my local library.
What a read! I finished sucking the information out of it in only two days! So I just wanted to give you guys a little synopsis from what I gathered.
The super foods, daily recommendations, and sidekicks are as follows:

  1. Beans. Sidekicks - All beans including: pinto, navy, Great Northern, lime, garbanzo (chickpeas), lentils, green beans, sugar snap peas, and green peas. Recommended - Four 1/2 cup servings weekly.
  2. Blueberries. Sidekicks - Purple grapes, cranberries, boysenberries, raspberries, strawberries, currants, blackberries, cherries, and all other berries. Recommended
