Description
How often do you eat out at restaurants? If you're like the rest of us, your answer will likely fall into the "several times a week" range. Challenged by hectic family, social, and work schedules, the first obligation that most Americans remove from their plate is cooking meals at home. And unfortunately, in exchange for the convenience of quick-and-easy dining out, we tend to sacrifice the most vital aspects of our health and wellbeing! In What's On The Menu, renowned dietitians Susan Weiner and Toby Smithson help you make the healthiest possible meal choices at virtually any restaurant. Their suggested menu items from an exhaustive list of well-known eateries will save you the guesswork of determining which dish is most healthy and delish, while essential information on an array of common cuisines will allow you to make informed choices anywhere you eat. With quick-reference tips for people who are working to manage their weight, reduce cardiovascular risk, improve control of diabetes or reverse pre-diabetes, What's On The Menu offers invaluable advice designed to help you make simple decisions to eat and live well.
