The levels of 5 vitamins, 6 minerals, calories, proteins, carbohydrates, and fats have been carefully balanced in every menu to supply the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs). A computer was used to balance and proportion all meals in this cookbook. To use the book, the reader calculates the number of calories needed daily based on individual height, body frame, and activity level. If the reader eats the number of calories needed (based on the menus presented) his nutritional requirements should be met. A daily food guide and information on nutrient functions, food consumption, nutrient losses, the 4 food groups, cooking and storage of foods, and food substitutions are included. (kbc).
