The nutritional power of food cannot be underestimated. More than providing sustenance, food contains nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and various special ingredients that have a meaningful effect on the body and our health. In this book, I review certain foods that are both high and low in essential nutrients, such as amaranth, which is high in vitamin K, spinach, which is high in potassium, herring and sturgeon, which are high in vitamin D, and salmon and mackerel, which are high in _-3 fatty acids. I also reveal the special ingredients of various foods, such as oxalic acid in spinach and water spinach, tannic acid in persimmons, and the high purine content found in liver, seafood, and some legumes. Some foods, such as grapefruit and pomelo, even contain compounds that can affect certain lipid-lowering drugs, antihypertensive drugs, and tranquilizers.
