Each year, medical treatments leave millions of patients unable to eat normally. Most hospitals deal with this problem simply by pureeing whatever food they are cooking. Needless to say, the result is not very appetizing, so many people refuse to eat. This makes it difficult to obtain adequate nutrition, maintain a healthy weight, and help the body heal. To help people get through this difficult time, Dr. Leah Gilbert-Henderson and Sandra Woodruff, RD have written the Soft Foods for Easier Eating Cookbook. This cookbook provides delicious recipes specifically designed to be easy to chew and swallow and address many of the complicating issues surrounding chewing and swallowing difficulty and related illnesses. It addresses mouth pain, nausea, and altered tastes, to name a few. It also shows you how to modify recipes to increase or decrease calories, fat, carbohydrates, and fiber and details the elements of a healthy diet.
