I like tofou and soy very much and I usually eat these stuffs when I can instead of meat. =============== There is a fairly new book out by PCRM (Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine) about the addictive properties of meat and other foods: Breaking the Food Seduction: The Hidden Reasons Behind Food Cravings---And 7 Steps to End Them Naturally by Dr. Neal D. Barnard and Joanne Stepaniak http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0312314930/qid=1089213056/ sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/103-7749327-0871817?v=glance & s=books Editorial Reviews Amazon.com Why is it so hard to resist the temptation of chocolate? Because chocolate triggers the release of natural opiates in the brain. It's a drug " strong enough to keep us coming back for more, " according to nutritional researcher Neal Barnard, M.D., president and founder of the Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine. Cheese also releases mild opiates during digestion--no wonder we crave it. In Breaking the Food Seduction, Barnard helps you understand and overcome your food cravings. He explains which foods " hook " us the most and why, and what to do to break free when you want to decrease the calories and fat that accompany these seductive foods. Cheese, for example, is about 70 percent saturated fat and has more cholesterol, ounce for ounce, than a steak. Barnard offers seven steps to breaking your food cravings, devoting a chapter to each one, with anecdotes and plenty of clear, sound, practical tips. Then he presents guidelines for healthy eating using " the New Four Food Groups " --vegetables, fruits, legumes, and whole grains--with a three-week menu plan and 113 healthful, vegan recipes. Highly recommended for people who want to understand their food cravings and finally get rid of them. --Joan Price Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
