Por eso escribí este libro. Haceme caso: comételo con calma. ¿Es realmente posible comer saludable y rico al mismo tiempo? ¿Cuidar nuestra nutrición sin privarnos de lo que nos gratifica y sin pasar en la cocina un tiempo que no tenemos? Este libro dice que sí y explica cómo. Aplicando su formación y experiencia profesional como nutricionista, Diego Sívori demuestra que la buena alimentación no es una misión imposible y que puede adaptarse a cada modo de vida. Tiempos de estrés. Comemos mal. Como sabemos que es así, nos sentimos peor. Y como encima nos dicen que hacerlo bien depende de nosotros, muchísimo peor.

Apoyado en la explicación sencilla de las propiedades de más de cien alimentos, con la contundencia gráfica de casi cincuenta infografías y el detalle de más de sesenta recetas que cubren cualquier necesidad, Sívori nos invita a tomar mejores decisiones alimentarias aprendiendo a organizar lo que comemos para desarrollar nuestro potencial.
