Synopsis

The first step to good health is a healthy eating plan. Healthy, well-nourished students are better able to achieve their academic and physical potential. Guide to Good Food provides the foundation for students to be able to pursue a healthy lifestyle by providing the latest advice on nutrition and physical activity.

As we all know, an integral part of healthy eating is understanding how to cook. Guide to Good Food provides students with the knowledge and skills needed to plan healthy meals, shop for ingredients, and prepare safe, wholesome food. In addition, as students plan and prepare meals, they will learn how to work effectively as part of a team as well as manage their time.

To encourage global literacy, the highly regarded Foods of the World unit introduces students to cultures other than their own. These chapters provide a small glimpse into the geography, history, cultures, and foods of people around the world.

Food provides a source on income for millions of people. In Guide to Good Food, students will learn about careers in food and nutrition and how to prepare for them. In addition, they will learn to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, preparing them for success in college and career.
