I like http://www.whfoods.com/. Gives a list of the "world's 100 healthiest foods" which is a bit hype-y, but it has a ton of info on nutrition, plus recipes. I used it when I was pregnant to figure what veggies had the most folate, iron, etc.

Clean Eating magazine is good for this - helps keep me in check when I start to get too far out of line. They have a website but I've never checked it out; there also are associated cookbooks.

I would read Animal Vegatable Miracle for inspiration...that will at least give you an idea of WHAT whole food it, wrapped around the beautiful writing of Barbara Kingsolver.

Then read anyting Pollan

Since the birth of DS and going dairy and soy free, I am appaled at the amount of processed food I was blithely putting in my body before now (looking at labels on everything will do that to you, I find). I'd really like to make a switch to eating more whole-foods based, less processed food, healthier fats, find out how much meat/dairy is actually healthy for you vs. what the average american diet contains, but I'm not sure where to start. I'm a big reader/planner, and it would help to have guidelines and tools to aid in this change. Any suggestions?

TIA!
