I love the &#8220;information age,&#8221; don&#8217;t get me wrong, but for people who just want quick facts you can trust, it can be a total nightmare. You read one thing on one website and then something totally different on another.<\/p>\n<p>In comes Elisa Zied, a New York-based dietitian and author of the resource book &#8220;<a title=\"nutrition at your fingertips\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/nutrition-at-your-fingertips\/\" target=\"_self\">Nutrition At Your Fingertips<\/a>.&#8221; I call it a nutrition &#8220;survival guide.&#8221; You don&#8217;t need to read this book cover to cover (but you could if you wanted).
