Product Description
You've been hearing it since you were a little kid: "You are what you eat." But unlike most of the adages you've long since debunked, this wise saying is true! Good nutrition is the key to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight and lifelong good health-no matter how you slice it.

This edition of Nutrition for Dummies has been updated with the latest revisions of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, new recommended daily allowances for all the nutrients a healthy body needs, plus the real low-down on all the conflicting opinions about vitamins and minerals, protein, fats, and carbs. You'll discover how to:

• Interpret nutrition labels
• Prepare delicious, healthy meals
• Keep nutrients in food, even after cooking
• Eat smart when eating out
• Evaluate dietary supplements

Nutrition for Dummies, Fourth Edition, is a one-size-fits-all guide to nutrition for anyone who may have fallen asleep in health class, wants to brush up on what they already know, or is looking to keep up-to-speed on all the latest guidelines and research. It shows you how to manage your diet so you can get the most bang (nutrients) for your buck (calories) and gives you the skinny on how to put together a healthy shopping list, how to prepare foods that are good for the body and the soul, and ten easy ways you can cut calories.

An apple a day may not necessarily keep the doctor away, but with the simple guidance of Nutrition for Dummies, you can live happily-and healthily-ever after.

Review of Google AdWords For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech)) (Paperback)

Greetings,

Like the previous reviewer, I also do not yet own this book.However, I own the first edition, AND, have been personally trained by the author, Dr. Howie Jacobson, specifically in Google Adwords. Howie has himself been taught from some of the best names in the internet marketing arena and has been at this game for over 5 years.Howie's knowledge of Google Adwords is comprehensive, but equally as important, he knows how to communicate these best practices and concepts to beginners.

The cost of the book is a "pittance" compared to what is at stake for your small business.On a money-making note, when Adwords is used properly, the advantages gained will not only increase your web traffic and sales, but it will also help you dominate your competitors whom are completely ignorant to the intricacies of the Adwords System.All of which is known, understood, and clearly communicated by the author.

(SIDEBAR: After you invest in this new edition, I would highly recommend HIRING Howie (for consulting) because he'll answer any and all of your detailed questions to give you a complete "road map" of how to proceed effectively and in a timely manner. Consider his consulting fee a great investment on how not to lose your shirt when merging into this volatile game of Google advertising.Many "know it alls" have lost tens of thousands of dollars by not flipping one or two important "Levers" in the Google Adwords System. And, Google's default levers need to be properly "tweaked" or you're in for a world of hurt!You don't want to start off behind the 8-ball.

As a Google Certified Professional myself, I can easily say that Howie knows everything you need to know to put your best foot forward and position yourself to begin profiting from his valuable information.

Best of Luck.

Review of Asthma for Dummies (Paperback)

I was skeptical of the name.However, I leafed through it (and many other asthma books) in a brick and mortar store before I bought this book.And I am so grateful!It's easy to read, but doesn't shy away from the technical and biological concepts you should know.It has nice diagrams for those of us who need the visuals to understand somewhat complicated biology.

I feel so much more informed about my disease after having read this book.I feel like I can talk with my doctors and know what questions to ask them, and understand their responses!I can honestly say that after reading this book, I was able to advocate for my own health enough that I feel I can breathe properly and happily now.

There are medications and small lifestyle changes out there that can improve an asthmatic's quality of life immensely.But it is important first to understand the disease itself and then what each medication or technique may do to help.This book is a good start, and I highly recommend taking the step to improve your well-being.

Review of AdWords For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech)) (Paperback)

I bought both Adwords for Dummies and the Ultimate Guide to Google Adwords and they are both good books but the Dummies guide has proven more useful.First off, the Dummies guide is about 90 pages longer, feels more comprehensive, has more step by step instructions and has many more screen shots than the other guide.What's more, the Dummies format makes it familiar once you open the cover, so it's easier to digest information with familiar icons, tips and warnings throughout, especially if you're not an expert at this stuff. Secondly, the $25 Google Adwords gift card (which was actually $30 for me as it also covered the $5 sign up fee) was great and easy to use.Make sure you apply it to your Adwords account when you sign up or within 15 days of signing up. The Ultimate Guide to Adwords cover says it has details on a "Free Google SuccessToolkit" ($85 value) inside, but I have yet to find it.Looked in the index, intro, front and back covers, kind of irritating.

Product Description

• AdWords lets every business-from eBay PowerSellers to Fortune 500 companies-create targeted, cost-efficient advertising campaigns on the Web, and accounts for the bulk of Google's $6 billion in annual revenues

Review of Football For Dummies (For Dummies (Sports & Hobbies)) (Paperback)

The only thing I knew about football was from watching it on TV.I picked up enough information to enjoy the game, but occassionally I got perplexed by commentator remarks and wished I knew what they were talking about.SoI bought the "Idiot's Guide to Football", learned a lot more, butstill felt unfulfilled.Then I broke down and bought another book, the"Dummies" version, and got exactly what I wanted.This bookcovers much more detail and doesn't talk down to you.The Idiot's version,while trying to be humorous, succeeds only in insulting your intelligence.If one were to absorb all that is contained in "Football forDummies", you may not get any calls for head coaching jobs, but you'llcertainly better understand the jargon and the meaning behind a lot of thedecisions that are made during and before a game. It even covers teammotivation, player training and diet, fantasy leagues, the draft, gamescheduling, high school and college football information, and a fairlylarge football- speak section that covers more ground that most otherglossaries I've seen.This book contains everything you need know aboutfootball to understand and enjoy the game.
