Following a Macros dietary pattern is not a one-size-fits-all plan, but the Jewish Food Hero is here to help! Commonly referred to as “flexible dieting”—allowing you to eat real foods without depriving your body—Macros dietary plans count the three most common nutrient categories, or macronutrients, that provide you with most of your energy: protein, carbohydrates, and fats. “Macro” is short for macronutrient, and Macros counting reveals where the calories you consume are coming from and how they affect your body. In Kosher Macros, Jewish Food Hero, Kenden Alfond, introduces readers to the concept of Macro dieting and shares guidelines and information for tracking Macros while abiding by kosher laws. Kosher Macros is a cookbook like no other, perfectly filling the void left by other Macro cookbooks by offering an array of kosher recipes that are aligned with the Macros diet and have flavor profiles inspired by your favorite Jewish recipes.

Movie stars establish themselves as brands--and Taylor's brand , in its most memorable outings, has repeatedly introduced a broad audience to feminist ideas. In her breakout film, "National Velvet" (1944), Taylor's character challenges gender discrimination,: Forbidden as a girl to ride her beloved horse in an important race, she poses as a male jockey. Her next milestone, "A Place in the Sun" (1951), can be seen as an abortion rights movie--a cautionary tale from a time before women had ready access to birth control. In "Butterfield 8" (1960), for which she won an Oscar, Taylor isn't censured because she's a prostitute, but because she chooses the men: she controls her sexuality, a core tenet of the third-wave feminism that emerged in the 1990s. Even "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (1966) depicts the anguish that befalls a woman when the only way she can express herself is through her husband's stalled career and children. The legendary actress has lived her life defiantly in public--undermining post-war reactionary sex roles, helping directors thwart the Hollywood Production Code, which censored film content between 1934 and 1967. Defying death threats she spearheaded fundraising for AIDS research in the first years of the epidemic, and has championed the rights of people to love whom they love, regardless of gender. Yet her powerful feminist impact has been hidden in plain sight. Drawing on unpublished letters and scripts as well as interviews with Kate Burton, Gore Vidal, Austin Pendleton, Kevin McCarthy, Liz Smith, and others, The Accidental Feminist will surprise Taylor and film fans with its originality and will add a startling dimension to the star's enduring mystique.
