The Low-Fat Fast Food Guide

Author: Jamie Pop

A completely updated edition of the guide that lets you use "McDonald's" and "diet" in the same sentence.

In this handy guide, the authors of the original, best-selling T-Factor Fat Gram Counter list the nutritional information for some of the nation's most popular fast-food menu items -- the good, the bad, and the ugly -- and come up with recommendations that allow you to have a full, satisfying meal while keeping your daily intake of fat within American Heart Association guidelines. In fact, you may be surprised to see how many low- and moderate-fat meals your favorite restaurants offer. This new edition includes Web site addresses for more than fifty top chains, as well as tips on how to reduce fat and improve nutrition when eating out. Over 300,000 copies sold.

Reflexology Basics

Author: Denise Whichello Brown

Everyone knows the soothing power of a simple foot massage. This feeling of relaxation is enhanced many times over with the science of reflexology. Like mirrors, points on your feet reflect specific organs, joints, and other bodily systems, and applying gentle pressure to these points stimulates the body's ability to heal itself. Press lightly on the base of the big toe, for example, to ease headaches; rotate that same toe to alleviate stiffness in the neck; perform pressure circles on the little toe to relieve bursitis. Whether you target specific problem areas such as ulcers, cystitis, muscle pain, poor skin tone, or digestive disorders, or simply want to promote a general feeling of well-being by cleansing the body of toxins, the benefits of reflexology are almost limitless. Practice the proper techniques and enjoy the healing powers of this simple, totally natural way to restore balance to the body.
