The Good Mood Kitchen: Simple Recipes and Nutrition Tips for Emotional Balance

Leslie Korn's book is a wealth of information for 'at home' strategies to implement cleaner, healthier food choices. Food can be either medicine or toxin. Her approach aids in creating a family-friendly cooking environment with simple, clear lists to reduce toxic foods and retool the pantry. These changes support reduction of symptoms of depression, anxiety, ADHD, and cognitive impairment. The key is her personalized approach: finding the 'right fuel for you!' Sharing her wisdom in nutrition, spices, and foods, recipes are included throughout to strengthen the use of home cooking.--Judith E. Pentz, MD, Integrative and Holistic Psychiatrist
