- 50 Best Plants on the Planet, by Cathy Thomas, Chronicle Books, 352 pages, $34.95
THERE is no doubt that fruits and vegetables should be an important part of everyone's diet but not all of them are created equal.
Even with plant-based food selections there are better choices to be made for the best nutrient dense foods.
Nutritionist Cathy Thomas has put together a top 50 list with detailed information on each of the food items selected. Every fruit and vegetable that has been included is presented with its nutritional value, health benefits, tips on storage and preparation, and more.
There are several recipes for each of the top 50 list and all are accompanied by colour photographs and cooking instructions.
