The pegan diet : 21 practical principles for reclaiming your health in a nutritionally confusing world / Mark Hyman, MD.

Hyman, Mark, 1959- (author.).

Summary:

The UltraWellness Center director combines approaches from paleo and vegan lifestyles to outline a balanced, healthful diet that is both satisfying and environmentally responsible, and includes meal plans, recipes, and shopping lists.

What do you get when you combine the best of paleo with the best of vegan? Pegan! Hyman explains how to combine the best aspects of the paleo diet (good fats, limited refined carbs, limited sugar) with the vegan diet (lots and lots of fresh, healthy veggies). The result is a diet that is not only good for your brain and body, but also good for the planet. Recipes are included. -- adapted from jacket.
