Described by a colleague as "one of the world's most knowledgeable and well-known researchers on medical and plant foods," Li (Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada), presents scientific evidence backing up mothers' admonitions to "eat your vegetables" (and fruits). He presents analyses of the nutritional and therapeutic values of plant foods, which may help stem the epidemic of diseases related to obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and stress. The volume contains summary charts of their beneficial vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals such as flavonoids. Appendices list chemical components and their sources (e.g., zinc- asparagus officinalis, et al.), and the English and scientific names of common and less well-known vegetables and fruits.
