The key to this revolutionary diet is the idea of nutrient density, as expressed by the simple formula Health=Nutrients/Calories. When the ratio of nutrients to calories is high, fat melts away and health is restored. Losing 20 pounds in two to three weeks is just the beginning. The more high-nutrient food Dr. Fuhrman's patients consume, the more they are satisfied with fewer calories, and the less they crave fat and high-calorie foods. Designed for people who must lose 50 pounds or more in a hurry, EAT TO LIVE works for every dieter, even those who want to lose as little as 10 pounds quickly. No willpower required-just knowledge!

 Rating:  - I was very hungry on this dietI tried incorporating some of the ideas in this book into my already vegetarian diet in an effort to reduce some of the health problems and joint pain I currently have. I do not need to lose weight, but ironically I gained weight on this diet because I was hungry all the time! Eating mostly fruits and vegetables was filling initially, but the sensation of fullness did not last long. I think that this diet as evidenced by the positive reviews may be very doable and benificial for some, but the extremeness ... Read More Rating:  - This book is definitely about living to eatAlthough I wasn't "living to eat" before starting this diet, I certainly was while I was on it. You have basically two choices: (a) keep it simple, eating fruit for breakfast, salad and beans for lunch, and salad and two cooked vegetables for dinner; and (b) extremely complicated meal plans, where you often end up using and cleaning a blender *twice* for each meal.

I have to say this is the book that I find no trouble understanding or moving forward at all, and to be continuously interesting and empowering. His language is concise, simple and strong. Along with constant examples and easy-to-understand scientific explanation on several topics, it really starts to form changes on how I look at food and then what I actually put into my mouth. So, I would say this is a very easy start for someone who wants to make a ...

Rating: - SuperbDr. F. will educate you on diet and nutrient-dense food choices. I've lost 25 lbs, feel great and never feel hunger. Everyone needs to read this book and make more informed decisions about eating veggies, greens, fruit, grains and nuts. |
