Review of "Fry Light, Fry Right!"
By: Sherri Allen
Review of Fry Light, Fry Right!
by Elaine Magee, MPH, R.D.
Black Dog & Leventhal, September 2004
Paperback, 192 pages
ISBN: 1579123910
We all love fried food. We love it for the flavor; we love it for the crunch. Unfortunately, with the rise of serious health problems like heart disease and diabetes, many of us are forced to forgo our favorite fried foods in order to avoid excess fat. Dietician and nutritionist Elaine Magee, admitted lover of all things fried, shares her approach to healthier fried food in "Fry Light, Fry Right!" This book is aimed at those who are willing to take a chance on a different way of approaching and preparing fried food.
The recipes in "Fry Light, Fry Right!" are all reduced-fat versions of traditionally fried favorites. You will be delighted to find, however, that the fat and calories are the only things that are reduced. The dishes are full of flavor and texture. Even the most devout fried food lover is sure to enjoy Restaurant Cheese Fries, Easy Oven Potato Chips, Oven-Baked Coconut Shrimp with Fresh Pineapple Salsa and Finger-Lickin' Good Chicken. There are even "fried light" desserts, like Spiced Apple Cider Fritters and Mexican Bunuelos.
Each recipe is accompanied by nutritional analyses comparing the traditionally-fried dish to its "fried light" counterpart. You will often be amazed by the reduction in calories, fat and cholesterol when the dishes are prepared using Magee's techniques.
If you have a health problem that necessitates reducing fat in your diet or if you just want to try a more healthful approach to preparing food, I recommend "Fry Light, Fry Right!" It gives you a great way to eat right without feeling deprived.

How to Benefit from the Mind-Body Connection
(excerpt)
You are about to gain insight into the
mind-body connection. The number of
people who truly understand these principles on our
planet are relatively few.
There is an undeniable connection between our minds and
bodies, you can learn to use this fact to your benefit.
Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of "Love, Medicine and
Miracles" was once a distraught cancer surgeon until he
began to understand the greater principles of the mind-
body connection. He felt dragged down by the artificial
barriers that existed between patient and doctor, and the
helplessness he often felt as a result of his inability
to effectively serve those patients. Eventually, those
barriers were disintegrated by Dr. Siegel's recognition
and growing understanding of the mind-body connection and
how it could serve his patients and himself.
Dr. Siegel, or Bernie as he began to have his patients
refer to him, had some
startling realizations as a cancer surgeon. He found that
there were actually
quite a few people in the world that successfully beat
the statistics on cancer
survival. He began to recognize that a patient's ability
to defeat something as
serious as cancer had to do with the patient's mind and
attitude about their
disease.
