This is a completely new book, following the same format as Healthy Food Choices. It has the same features (guidelines for vegan menu planning, suggested seven day menu showing how easy it is to get all the recommended nutrients, breakdown per serving for each recipe, and easy-to-follow directions.) Class participants have been pleasantly surprised to find how delicious the food is, even though it is low-fat, low-sugar, and high fiber!
Childhood, adolescence, even the "twilight years" have been extensively researched and documented. But the vast terrain known as midlife—the longest segment of the life course—has remained uncharted. How physically and psychologically healthy are Americans at midlife? And why do some experience greater well-being than others? The MacArthur Foundation addressed these questions head-on by funding a landmark study known as "Midlife in the U.S.," or MIDUS. For the first time in a single study, researchers were able to integrate epidemiological, sociological, and psychological assessments, as well as innovative new measures to evaluate how work and family life influence each other. How Healthy Are We? presents the key findings from the survey in three sections: physical health, quality of life and psychological well-being, and the contexts (family, work) of the midlife. The topics covered by almost forty scholars in a wide variety of fields are vast, including everything from how health and well-being vary with socioeconomic standing, gender, race, or region of the country to how middle-aged people differ from younger or older adults in their emotional experience and quality of life. This health—the study measures not only health-the absence of illness—but also reports on the presence of wellness in middle-aged Americans. The culmination of a decade and a half of research by leading scholars, How Healthy Are We? will dramatically alter the way we think about health in middle age and the factors that influence it. Researchers, policymakers, and others concerned about the quality of midlife in contemporary America will welcome its insights. * Having a good life means having good relationships with others to almost 70% of those surveyed. Less than 40% mentioned their careers. * Reports of disruptive daily stressors vary by age, with young adults and those in midlife experiencing more than those in later adulthood. * Men have higher assessments of their physical and mental health than woman until the age of 60.
This is a cookbook that contains some of the healthiest recipes ever invented, and they create food that is delicious! In addition, this collection of essays provides figurative recipes for our nation to create a better world through an embrace of holistic, fair-minded and farsighted perspectives with a deep appreciation of feminine vision and common sense fairness. The provocative worldviews included with these recipes include some advice to the Tea Party and Occupy Movements, and there are also several compendiums of prescriptions for how we could improve our societies by fairly fixing our Social Security and healthcare systems, and by advancing a progressive agenda for a more sane humanity. These ideas would help guide us forward toward achieving goals that are in best interests of almost everyone now alive, and all in future generations.
This text was excerpted from various selections of "Healthy people 2000". It offers a vision for the new century, characterized by significant reductions in preventable death and disability, enhance quality of life, and greatly reduced disparities in the health status of populations in our society.
"When her family moved from Puerto Rico to Atlanta, Von Diaz traded plantains, roast pork, and malta for grits, fried chicken, and sweet tea. Brimming with humor and nostalgia, Coconuts and Collards is a recipe-packed memoir of growing up Latina in the Deep South. Inspired by her grandmother's 1962 copy of Cocina Criolla--the Puerto Rican equivalent of the Joy of Cooking--Coconuts and Collards celebrates traditional recipes while fusing them with Diaz's own family history and a contemporary Southern flair. Diaz discovers the connections between the food she grew up eating in Atlanta and the African and indigenous influences in so many Puerto Rican dishes. With stunning photographs that showcase the geographic diversity of the island and the vibrant ingredients that make up Puerto Rican cuisine, this cookbook is a moving story about discovering our roots through the foods that comfort us. It is about the foods that remind us of family and help us bridge childhood and adulthood, island and mainland, birthplace and adopted home."--[page 166]
