Advance Praise for Superfruits

“Paul Gross’s straightforward and well-documented book provides strong

direction and clear-cut answers for consumers, based on well-reasoned

research and compelling evidence. His use of . . . superfruits criteria and

a ‘points system’ for rating health-bene cial fruits is a welcome answer

to consumers seeking the best choices for themselves and their families.”

—Mary Ann Lila Ph.D., director, Plants for Human Health Institute,

North Carolina State University

“Paul Gross, the ‘Berry Doctor,’ goes beyond the marketing hype on super-

fruits, using an easy-to-understand method of ranking potential stars. By

looking at nutrient density, research support, and popular appeal, Gross

delivers a cornucopia of o erings that can easily enhance well-being . . .

whether via simple suggestions in the breakdown of each o ering, a list

of the types of products to look for in the supermarket, or by following

the creative recipes from the back of the book.”

—Heather Granato, group editor, Virgo Publishing

“ is is a book for the public, for nutritionists, M.D.s, alternative medical

practitioners, vegetarians—for anyone who wants to better understand

what a well-chosen selection of superfruits can do for you inside and out

besides tasting great.”

—Ian Crown, Panoramic Fruit Company, Puerto Rico

“Dr. Gross is a leading expert and strong proponent of consumer educa-

tion and superfruit science, and following careers as a university scientist,

entrepreneur, and food industry consultant, he is the leading advocate

for superfruits and superfruit science.”

—Steve Talcott Ph.D., Department of Food Chemistry, Texas
