The World's Healthiest Foods Website

A quick word about a really useful website that I came across recently. It's called The World's Healthiest Foods and it is a database of healthy ingredients with nutritional information, cooking articles, recipes, and cooking methods. I came across it whilst looking for some advice on how to increase Omega 3 in our diet to help my husband's eczema. If you are interested in a healthy, nutritious diet I recommend that you have a look at this site. 10 million visitors a year can't be wrong! The site is written with enthusiasm and it encourages you rather than preaches at you. I found the Recipe Assistant particularly useful. This assistant helps you search the database for recipes based on your personal needs. You can select foods to include, foods to exclude and nutrients that you require. A nutritional profile is given for each recipe. I have tried several of the recipes so far. They have all been quick and easy to prepare and, most importantly, delicious! You will have to translate the recipies from American. They use cups for measurement and some ingredients are known by a different name than we use here.
