Includes bibliographical references and index."The book about the power of sprouts as an ultra-food for health, weight loss, and optimum nutrition by Doug Evans, the co-founder of Organic Avenue and the founder of Juicero The Sprout Book is a transformative plan to empower readers to embark on a plant-based way of eating that's low-cost and accessible. It introduces sprouts, one of the most nutritious sustainable foods on earth, by adding a few dishes to a diet and then shifting into a raw, whole foods plant-based diet. Among the mind-blowing nutritional qualities of sprouts: - they have 20-30 times the nutrients of other vegetables and 100 times those of meat - they are cancer-fighting and help to protect us from cardiovascular disease and pollutants in the environment - they help with digestion - they are a healthier alternative to juice cleansing, and will leave consumers with more energy and fuller stomachs for fewer calories, sugars, and carbs The forty recipes contain at least 50% sprouts on top of raw vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, spices, medicinal mushrooms, sea vegetables, and top-quality cold-pressed vegetable oils. After ten days of sprouting, a reader will lose weight, gain energy, reduce inflammation, sleep better, become more regular, and think more clearly"--

All the beloved ghosts / by MacLeod, Alison,1964-author.;
A woman emerging from mourning spends her savings on a fur coat, a coat she will wear to a dance that will change her life. A professor of cardiovascular physiology lingers on the cusp of consciousness as he waits for his new heart to be delivered, still beating, from another body--and is carried on a tidal wave of memories to an attic room half a century ago. Visiting Sylvia Plath's grave in Yorkshire, the author imagines a conversation with the poet, a fellow North American who settled in grey England. She reflects on the treasured photograph of Princess Diana she took as a teenager, one of a multitude taken during a life cut short. And at Charleston, Angelica Garnett, child of the Bloomsbury group, is overpowered by echoes of the past; by all the beloved ghosts that spring to life before her eyes. MacLeod's characters hover on the border of life and death, where memory is most vivid and the present most elusive. Moving from the London riots of 2011 to 1920s Nova Scotia, from Oscar Wilde's grave to the Brighton Pier, these exquisitely formed stories capture the small tragedies and profound truths of existence.

Progress : How One Idea Built Civilization and Now Threatens to Destroy It. by McDonald, Samuel Miller.;
Progress is power. It has built cities, delved the oceans and space, created wealth, opportunity, and remarkable innovation. But the modern story of progress is also a very dangerous fiction. In 'Progress', Samuel Miller McDonald offers a radical new perspective on the myths upon which the modern world is built, illuminating its destructive lineage and suggesting an urgent alternative. McDonald argues that if humanity is to thrive, then we must dismantle, reimagine, and create anew what progress means.Library Bound Incorporated
