Photo of Alexander and the Great Food Fight
Out rolled an apple, all shiny and green.  ''I'm a good for you snack.  I'm loaded with fiber and carbohydrates.  That means I keep your body strong, help heal your scrapes and wounds, fight off colds and diseases.''
''Uh...I was looking for a snack.  I didn't know what to eat.  Um...Will you help me make a bowl of fruit salad?''  His mom smiled, ''I'm glad you chose a healthy snack instead of sweets.''  Alex shyly mumbled, ''Fruits help me to grow stronger.''

    "It's time to take control of my health!" I said, when my body refused to process starches and sugars properly. For several years my food intake was a daily challenge, but through research and self-education, I'm living a much healthier life. I've gone from not having enough strength to buckle my seatbelt, to walking a ten mile walk-a-thon. Allow this book to become apart of your family's health resource.
