Mowry is known for her work on the sitcom Sister Sister. More recently, she has appeared on Cooking Channel's Tia Mowry at Home and Food Network's Food Network Star Kids. Her first cookbook, written in collaboration with hypnotherapist Jessica Porter (The Hip Chick's Guide to Macrobiotics), outlines an antiinflammatory diet that helped Mowry recover from medical conditions such as eczema, migraines, and endometriosis. Aligned to Donna Gates's The Body Ecology Diet, the book recommends giving up dairy, white sugar, and processed foods. It includes a self-assessment tool, a ten-day menu plan to help readers kick-start healthier habits, and recipes for most courses, including drinks, desserts, and fermented foods. Mowry notes her advice should not replace the expertise of a qualified physician.
VERDICT For readers interested in clean eating and antiinflammatory foods, this cooking and self-help title offers a selection of easy and satisfying recipes.
