Author Meredith Baird, one of the key authorities in the raw food movement for the last decade, touches upon the endless array of health benefits that the coconut offers--from health to wellness to beauty secrets--that have long been eliminated from the western diet.

My Review: This was a great book that was very informative although there were parts where the author doesn't really go into depth on which option is better to use. I didn't know there was so much too know about coconuts so that was very interesting to learn. The photos in this one help along with the work and man you just want everything thats in them. Once you start on this coconut cooking you wont stop!
