Most people view food very simply: it either tastes good, or it's good for you — and never the two shall meet. We at Precision Nutrition are on a mission to change that view. The book you now hold in your hands is proof positive that food can both be good and taste great at the same time. And I want to be clear about one other thing: this is a book for people who want to look spectacular.
Not just lose a few pounds here or there, not just drop an inch of the waist, or not just feel more "well" whatever that means. Gourmet Nutrition is for people who want their bodies to look like fewer and fewer bodies actually look these days: stunning, healthy and strong. As a nutrition researcher, coach and consultant for almost 15 years now, I've worked with thousands of clients around the world, everyone from Olympic athletes to cardiac patients, from people just getting started toward their goals to those who have been exercising and eating well for years.
And to this day, no matter who the audience, when I first present the revolutionary concept that you can eat great tasting food and still have a great-looking, healthy physique, laughter generally ensues. And that drives some folks away from eating healthy altogether. Others decide to lower their heads and keep at it, eating miserable tasting food in a brave attempt to lose weight or accomplish some other health or physique goal. See, the whole "all healthy food tastes bad" thing is either a myth or just a lame excuse.
Yes, every day, there are people out there eating healthy, easy-to-make meals that could be found in gourmet restaurants. Meals that could impress the most discerning foodie. Meals that could fool a first date, a reluctant spouse, or picky-eating kids.
Meals that just plain taste good. Meals that, when planned and eaten consistently, can improve and even completely transform your body. Look, I've been there. I've eaten all that terrible food too. But at a certain point, it got tiresome. It got old. So instead of trying to overcome the protests of a thousand unsatisfied taste buds, I decided to do something about it. I sat down with my good friend and noted recipe maestro, Dr. John Williams, and created the ultimate physique-friendly cookbook, Gourmet Nutrition.
Originally appearing as an e-book, Gourmet Nutrition Volume 1 instantly became an Internet best-seller. The feedback was exceptional. Yet there were two problems with it. First, it was an e-book. And people wanted it as a hardcopy, as an in-the-flesh book they could hold in their hands and lay flat on their counters while they cooked. Second, Gourmet Nutrition readers wanted more.
Once they worked through the first great-tasting recipes, they wanted more Gourmet Nutrition meal ideas. In response to these two requests, I decided to get back to work and create another volume of Gourmet Nutrition. This time I enlisted the help of gourmet chef Michael Williams and his culinary counterpart Kristina Andrew. And among the three of us, we came up with over additional Gourmet Nutrition recipes — each of them presented in this very book, a beautifully photographed hard copy that's equally at home on the countertop and the coffee table.
Now, at this point, you might be asking yourself — "There are a few thousand cookbooks on the market — so what makes Gourmet Nutrition so special? You see, traditionally, the worlds of gourmet cooking and healthy nutrition have been at odds. The gourmands have sacrificed all including nutritional value at the altar of flavor and the artistic presentation of food. And the nutritionists have sacrificed all including flavor at the altar of physiology and nutritional value. Yet flavor and nutritional value are not mutually exclusive.
They are absolutely reconcilable. And with Gourmet Nutrition , we've created meals that are healthy — and that taste great too. Must taste great Simply put, to be considered for inclusion into this book, every meal was scrutinized by the discriminating palates of a number of chefs, nutritionists, and foodies. And only those recipes with the highest ratings were included in Gourmet Nutrition. Must contain lean, complete protein Protein is the building block of muscle.
And even if you don't want to build more muscle, you definitely want to preserve the muscle that you have for as long as you can.

Jose Antonio, Ph. You will never be bored again with healthy eating! You've given us the best of both worlds here; most cookbooks have no nutritional "background info," just the recipes themselves. On the flip side, most nutritional books have some great theory, but then don't give you the necessary tools to develop a solid day-to-day eating routine. That's what makes this book a must-have.
For those who love to eat with style, but hate to look "indulgent. Enter Gourmet Nutrition: the cookbook for the fit food lover.
