Self-test quizes are fairly good. Colourful layout with some interesting tips.
Condescending, with some information which is simply wrong.
This book by 'Dr' Gillian McKeith is well laid-out, with attractive pictures and text which is easy to read. Unfortunately, a lot of the nutritional information in the book is spurious at best, and wholly wrong at worst. Followers of her regimen would find themselves believing that free-range eggs, for example, are the healthier choice than regular British eggs, which in my opinion is the view of only the most impressionable, ill-advised consumer. Also, whether to buy organic produce or not is a choice every person should make for themselves, as the label 'organic' is in no way an assurance of a products beneficial content, and is also a political choice.
