Review:Our pediatrician has recommended that my kids be on an anti-inflammatory diet as much as possible, but I have struggled to find recipes that are simple enough for a busy working mom to make, and tasty enough for them to eat. Madeline Given has provided recipes that do both: Not too many ingredients, and many of them look kid-friendly.

Review:This book really helped me to understand how my body works and how I can get healthy to lose weight (not lose weight to get healthy, as Dr. Berg likes to say!). Dr. Berg has a really knack for clearly and simply explaining the science behind fat burning and how hormones affect the overall function of your body.

His book convinced me to follow his protocol. Read more
Review:I have used the analogue version before but the kindle edition's tables for beneficial/neutral/avoid foods by category are too small to read at maximum magnification and actually fairly small but readable on the cloud reader. Please fix this. I copied the charts/tables to a word document so that I would have them as a handy reference. Otherwise, a really great program. Read more

Review:This book changed my life, especially the chapters on nutrition. I am trying to follow its recommendation and for the first time in my life, I am not suffering from gas and constripation. I believe that limiting carbs and sugar are the key. Also the section on meditation is very helpful. This is a great book and I highly recommend it. Read more
Review:Extremely thought-provoking; a good follow-on from Dr. Weiss's first book on the subject (Many Lives, Many Masters). I strongly recommend reading these for contemplation of many things about this life. Read more
