Recensioner i media

‘Exploring the ways vegetables actively contribute to good health - and how to grow them. A warm motivating book, particularly if you are interested in preventative care or are on the cusp of developing reversible age-related diseases. Beth includes the more fashionable elements of the topic such as prebiotics, gut health, beneficial soil microbes and recipes for ferment, but there are thoughts on the best ways to preserve nutrients in vegetables, too.’
