Diets & Weight Loss
Review:This was recommended to me by my holistic health care person.
While the book is dated in its references and suggestions, it did offer some interesting and healthy ideas.
Not a "quick" read, as there is a lot of info contained--but a book to reference when needed. Read more
Review:I purchased this book because I was mulling over the idea of becoming vegan. I have been vegetarian for a full year. I was disappointed in the information given. It is written very dryly in a seeming monotone. Yes, it contains important information, but I think an opportunity was missed. Read more
Review:Somewhat disappointed in the book as it is mostly fast foods, frozen foods instead of fresh or home prepared meals. However I can find most of what I need, just takes a lot of time weeding through all the fast food info. Probably a good book for some. Read more
Review:I found this information to be informative and their methodology made sense to me. It also verified a lot of what I had been doing anyway and has turned me into a bit of a "nag" to my husband for changes to his lifestyle. Read more
Review:The author describes the body's transition from ape to man using many examples of physical and mental development. His explanations are logical and convincing especially for an amateur evolutionist like myself. At times, it's overly technical and repetitive in some areas but the book provides many answers as to why our species has survived environmental and social changes of the past. Read more
Review:Maria does it again! Another extraordinary KETO cookbook. The Pad Thai and Traditional Tiramisu are delicious. I'm looking forward to preparing every recipe in this book.

Review:Living the Farm Sanctuary Life is all about living compassionately and provides the information and tools you need to do so. Through this book, Gene Bauer and Gene Stone have done an excellent job presenting important information in a compelling, non-preachy way. Plus, the recipes are wonderful! I had the opportunity to test one of them before the book was published and the dish received rave reviews from family and friends. I can't wait to test them all!
I highly recommend this book i... Read more
Review:Stephanie Seneff has a different view on the causes of Alzheimer's. Pamela McDonald may be wrong in her recommendations of a low fat diet for APOE-4 carriers. In fact Seneff contends that it may increase the probability of contracting Alzheimer's. [...] They cannot both be right. Seneff is an Principle Investigator at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. [...] Also consider The Brain Trust Program by Larry McCleary, M.D., who has a different conclusion and would con... Read more
Review:Would've liked more exercise routines. I'm very into HIIT and I thought there'd b more of those. Her whole diet system is a little confusing too. "Bricks"?? I do like her smoothie recipes-post workout n meal replacement.
Just somewhat satisfied w/the book.

Review:Really enjoyed this book during my first Whole 30. Loved that each day had excerpts of what you may be feeling so you knew what was common to expect. I liked the diary aspect to right down details, good and bad, of how your day went. I can look back and see what worked, what foods I liked, what I could do differently. Read more
