LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Kitchen Gallery invites the community to a book signing event for author Peggie King's “Fit Food for Foodies” on Saturday, Nov. 27.

The event will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at The Kitchen Gallery, 301 N. Main St., Lakeport.

“Fit Food for Foodies” is King's first cookbook. The book, which costs $29.95, has more than 60 fabulous detox diet friendly recipes that are a result of King's own experiences with eating in a way to cleanse the body of toxins, including old stored fat.

Recipes are gluten-free, dairy-free and sugar-free.

The cookbook targets a healthy and beneficial way of eating with delicious recipes that you will want to cook all of the time.

King has read many books on healthy eating and detoxification. She incorporates this knowledge into the recipes in “Fit Food for Foodies.”

The recipes have been specially written to suit systemic detoxification of the body on multiple levels. The recipes are quick and so wonderful that you will never know that you are eating “healthy food.”

There has been a lot of media attention lately about obesity linked to the Western diet heavily influenced by processed foods.

The problem afflicts millions of people who have adopted a Western diet and can lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, adult onset diabetes, and high cholesterol. Many are allergic to foods such as wheat and dairy, knowingly or unknowingly. It is difficult to find processed foods that do not contain some amount of wheat, dairy or sugar.
