Le ricette della buona salute

Le ricette della buona salute is a handy and practical book with tasty recipes to support healthy and mindful eating. Every day we need the right nutrients to maintain our vital functions, and every time we eat, our bodies undergo a transformation, because the food we ingest affects our blood values.

In this new book, Pier Luigi Rossi focuses on the blood sugar spike and explains why it is important to know how postprandial blood sugar - i.e. the concentration of glucose in the blood after a meal - works. Blood sugar peaks during the first hour and then tends to drop again. Although the recipes proposed in this book are very simple to make, they are based on the right combinations of food and help us organise our day in a way that helps us choose the foods that will prevent excessive variations in blood sugar levels.

Pier Luigi Rossi, a doctor, is a specialist in Food Science and Hygiene and Preventive Medicine. He devised the molecular method of mindful eating and is the author of many books and scientific research papers. For Aboca, he has published: Dalle calorie alle molecole (2014); Conosci il tuo corpo, scegli il tuo cibo (2016); L’intestino il sesto senso del nostro corpo (2018); La buona salute (2019).
