New Release Books by Melissa Hartwig

What are whole foods? It is food as nature intended it - unprocessed and unrefined. So many foods in stores today have had their nutrients stripped out, and are built back up with artificial add-ins, sugar, and other junk to make them bigger and taste "better." If you eat this food, the results are poorer health, weight gain, and vulnerability to diseases as serious as diabetes and cancer. With whole foods, however, all the nutrients have been preserved, so you're getting the real deal. It's grass-fed beef, butter, wild-caught fish, organic vegetables and fruit, whole-grains, and so on. You'll be getting all the nutrients like fiber, calcium, and fatty acids that your body craves. The Whole Foods Slow Cooker features delicious, no-fuss dinners that cook while you work; roasts that transform into tacos, salads, and soups, for easy meals throughout the week; and satisfying one-pot meals that make prep and cleanup a breeze. These creative meals use whole-food ingredients found in any supermarket, and as an added bonus, feature recipes and directions for making your meals Instant Pot-friendly! The heart of the book is, naturally, the recipes. You'll find good eats like: Simmerin' Hawaiian Fajitas Better-for-You Beef Bourguignon Italian Harvest Chicken Soup Coconut-Lime-Poached Halibut Tenderloin Cacciatore Butternut-Bacon Bisque with Shrimp Cherry Chuck Roast Smoky Chorizo Chicken Slow-Herbed Salmon You'll even find a section just for vegan food, if that's more your style. Whether you're a pro at the slow cooker and want to eat more whole foods, or you're familiar with whole foods and want to use your slow cooker more, or you're new to both, this cookbook will be a great resource you'll return to again and again. Get it now and give yourself the best present!

But after your Whole30, how do you make sure those new, healthy habits actually stick? In this New York Times best-selling book, Melissa Hartwig defines "food freedom" as being in control of the food you eat, instead of food controlling you. The Whole30 helps you jump-start the process, but as anyone who's dieted knows, holding on to that freedom and creating healthy habits that last is the hard part. The Whole30's Food Freedom Forever offers real solutions for breaking the cycle of yo-yo dieting and the resulting stress, weight gain, uncontrollable cravings, and health complaints. In her detailed 3-part plan, Melissa shows you how to discover food freedom for yourself, no matter how out of control you feel; walk a self-directed path that keeps you in control for months on end; gracefully recover when you slip back into old habits; and create the kind of food freedom that stays with you for the rest of your life. The Whole30's Food Freedom Forever walks you through the Whole30 program and teaches you how customize your reset for improving and stabilizing energy, getting a handle on stubborn sugar cravings, reducing systemic inflammation, and fine-tuning your vegan diet. You’ll learn how to spot your specific triggers before they’re pulled and new strategies for dealing with temptation, strengthening your new healthy habits, and boosting your willpower. Melissa also shares advice for retaining your food freedom during holidays, vacations, periods of life stress, social pressure, and skepticism from friends and family. By the last page, you’ll have a detailed plan for creating the perfect diet for you, finding your own healthy balance, and maintaining the kind of control that brings you real food freedom every day.
