Thought for Food
A Guide to Whole Foods and Your Health
By Renée Loux
Famed raw foods chef Renée Loux celebrates the growing whole foods movement with over 150 delicious, creative recipes and practical advice for leading a healthy, whole life.
 |
In her first book, Living Cuisine, Renée Loux showed how nutritious and satisfying raw-foods cuisine can be. Now she takes a broader look at the benefits of a diet rich in natural, whole foods. Under the banner of “nutritional cross-training,” Renée outlines the basic principles of such dietary plans as macrobiotics and Ayruveda, and dishes up fabulous, flavorful whole foods recipes for optimal health, with a nod to gluten-free living, blood sugar balance, and boosted immunity. |
You are what you eat, Renée explains, but you are also what you use to clean your house and your skin, and so sprinkled throughout the book readers will find ideas for introducing the whole foods philosophy to their home and beauty routines, including tips for composting, choosing a healthy water filter, and purifying the air naturally with common house plants.
When Living Cuisine appeared, Alicia Silverstone applauded Renée’s recipes, saying: “Incredibly rich and delicious and full of health and restorative energy, her food is medicine.” Part eco-friendly cookbook and part organic lifestyle guide, this new book reflects that same spirit, while presenting the essential elements of living well through whole foods, and living responsibly for planetary health and a sustainable future.
RENÉE LOUX is a celebrated raw foods chef and former co-owner of the Raw Experience restaurant in Maui. She facilitates health retreats and workshops worldwide, which incorporate living foods into a balanced lifestyle. She lives in Maui.
