And since it is January, you have probably noticed a huge display of diet books as soon as you enter the bookstore. While some of those may be helpful, others are written by individuals with no nutrition background or credentials. On the American Dietetic Association website, you can find Consumer Diet and Lifestyle Book Reviews (click on the link). There dietitians in the field have reviewed popular diet books and evaluated the information found there. This will be helpful in finding one that has sound nutrition recommendations.

 

What have I missed? Have you found others helpful? Have you read any on my list?
