Reviews

We're thrilled to share these stellar first quotes for OMD by Suzy Amis Cameron: "My top priority in life is to ensure that my children live happy, healthy lives. And I feel an incredible responsibility to teach them the importance of protecting and respecting themselves, others and the world around them. We now know that that incorporating more plant-based foods into our diets is better for overall health...and the planet. But it can be difficult to throw together quick, easy, healthful meals that also taste great. In this book Suzy makes it all that much easier, providing all the small things you can do to make a big impact. Filled with wholesome (and super-delicious) recipes, OMD is the solution that every health-minded mama can benefit from." -Jessica Alba "In OMD, Suzy is the perfect guide to gently usher you into plant-based eating. There's simply nothing better you can do for your health, and with OMD's incremental, non-judgmental and nutrition-based approach, it's inspiring, achievable-and delicious. Get ready for a health transformation!" -Michael Greger, M.D., New York Times bestselling author of How Not to Die and founder of NutritionFacts.org "In addition to the well-known nutritional benefits of a plant-based diet, it has now become quite clear that these diets are better for the environment. Suzy Amis Cameron provides clear evidence in support of both of these claims. As well she provides her readers with all manner of tips and tricks to create delicious recipes that will not only be of benefit for their own health, but also that of the natural world. OMD is a book that nourishes our minds as well providing ways to nourish our bodies." -Jane Goodall, PhD, DBE, Founder - the Jane Goodall Institute & UN Messenger of Peace "The OMD concept really excites me! Anything that nudges us towards making big changes, one step - just one meal - at a time, is a powerful thing. Food interacts with pretty much everything on the planet: our health; the economy; the environment. As Suzy explains, small changes can make a huge difference to our health - and the health of future generations." -Jamie Oliver "The wave of plant-based eating is making culinary history-and Suzy Amis Cameron shows in OMD that the benefits for your health and the climate are just as groundbreaking. Her book warmly and wisely guides you to make the life-changing shift." -Tal Ronnen, founder and chef of Crossroads and author of the New York Times Bestseller The Conscious Cook
