Many people are aware foods play a critical role beyond simple nutrition in the body. And many know, the less processed, and more natural and organic a nutrient is, the better it is nutritionally for you. All the pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and whatever else huge agri-business throws in to produce larger and "better" crops do not translate to better nutrition.

A new publication scheduled for publication next spring, “Seamus Mullen’s Hero Food: How Cooking With Delicious Things Can Make Us Feel Better”, by Seamus Mullen, is worth placing on your "watch list".

From The New York Times:

"Mr. Mullen calls these “hero foods,” and he’s just finished the manuscript for a cookbook called “Seamus Mullen’s Hero Food: How Cooking With Delicious Things Can Make Us Feel Better.” Scheduled to come out in the spring, it will celebrate these gustatory “super friends” for what he sees as their power to beat back inflammation, boost the immune system and amplify an eater’s overall health."

I for one, do believe in the power of foods to help with a great number of mild to moderate afflictions.
