This week we celebrate the mildly sweet flavor and many health-promoting benefits of red cabbage while it is in the peak of its season. As well as being nutritious and delicious, it is inexpensive — a real nutritional bargain! Because red cabbage is so low in calories, it is also great for weight loss. You will love the great taste of red cabbage.

How to Cook Without Destroying Vitamins, Minerals, and Antioxidants
Did you know that traditional methods for cooking vegetables can lose from 50-80% of their nutritional value? Traditional cooking methods such as boiling can deplete water soluble vitamins, such as vitamin C and the B vitamins, as well as flavonoid phytonutrients. When I discovered that 88% of the folic acid in carrots and 66% of the flavonoids in carrots and broccoli are destroyed through boiling for extended periods of time, I knew how important it was to develop alternative Healthiest Way of Cooking methods that you will find in the World's Healthiest Foods book, which will help retain the maximum nutritional value found in these health-promoting foods.
Q&A from our new book:
What are cold pressed oils?
From Satisfied Book Readers:
In short, George has changed my life. The family approaches cooking much differently now--much healthier. George makes sense. The recipes are simple and easy. One just has to change the mind set, and this book is, for us anyway, revolutionary. Go George!! - BS
