Nourished by Judy Barnes Baker

I’m excited to announce that Judy Barnes Baker’s long awaited cookbook is finally available! Nourished: Health, Weight Loss and Metabolic Balance has been in production for some time and contains some amazingly mouth-watering recipes. I was priviledged to try a few of these recipes while the book was still a work-in-progress and I can tell you – this is a cookbook you won’t want to miss. If you were on the 2010 Low-Carb Cruise, you will remember Judy telling us about her cookbook project for the American Diabetes Association. We were all so excited that the ADA was finally getting it! But alas, it wasn’t to be. After reviewing her book they wanted to make horrifying changes, like substituting healthy butter for unhealthy margarine. When she refused, they turned down the book. Thankfully for us, Judy stood her ground and just kept on working. Now we have this great looking cookbook that should likely be on every low-carber’s shelf.

I’ll be doing a review after my copy arrives, but for now I just wanted to share the exciting news. You can currently pick up a copy from LC Foods, who has Nourished listed way below the suggested retail price. In fact, Glen Frederich, owner of LC Foods, told me this price is practically his cost. Now that’s a pretty good deal! Only $19 for 416 pages in full color, more than 80 pictures and 236 recipes in 52 complete menus. And while you are there, if you haven’t yet picked up Judy’s other fantastic cookbook titled Carb Wars, get a bundle deal and treat yourself to some of the best low-carb recipes available.

If you are in the market for a new cookbook, please consider Nourished. Let’s show Judy we appreciate her work and that she took a stand for healthy eating, even though it meant losing the contract with the ADA. I know Judy personally and she cares more about the health of others than she does a nice paycheck, but let’s help her get one of those too. She deserves it, and you deserve to have fantastic meals for your family that promote this healthy lifestyle.
