Very Happy with this book

I was hoping to get some great advice in this book and was not disappointed. It confirmed everything I had believed about nutrition. I'm very impressed.

Interesting

Most of the nutritional information in this book is actually what I am learning about in my pre-med classes. I definitely think you can't go wrong by eating more fresh fruits and veggies, though the specific meal plan discussed in this book might not have enough calories or fat that someone as active as I would need. The author gives information about how to adapt this way of eating too fit better into your lifestyle. Of the nutritional /diet books I have read, this really seems to be the healthiest way to lose weight and take control of your health.

Superior Nutrition

I wish everyone could do this and would stick with this. Our whole planet would benefit from excellent health and an abundance of nutrient dense food.

Automatic Weight Loss

Before I listened to this book I was skeptical
Book was recommended to me
Joel Fuhrman has a way with words that work
His diet includes fiber, nuts, vegetables, fruit, seeds, plant-based food overall
He does not discriminate : no matter your preferences with food or unhealthy lifestyle this book can do at least one good thing for you

Love the info; want more resources

What made the experience of listening to Eat to Live the most enjoyable?

The comprehensive, documented scientific backing of the SOUND nutritional information

What was one of the most memorable moments of Eat to Live?

When I realized that broccoli had MORE protein per calorie than STEAK!!! What?! :)

Have you listened to any of Joel Fuhrman’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, I haven't.

Any additional comments?

Like many others who wrote reviews, I agree that to make this a complete tool, the audio reader needs to have a link to a PDF or website that will help guide them into the recipes and the FUNCTIONAL/MECHANICAL part of this book and the concepts it presents.

However, as a "good thing", his book and the cook book are both available in the library. I chose to check them out so that I can read along and re-read more intensely the detail laden segments that I really wanted to understand (I'm a "why" person). The recipes are handy to have, but it was rather inconvenient to go to the library for the recipes, when I had the convenience of audible.com for the content.

Fantastic book!

I listened on Audible, but now have to go buy it for the recipes and meal plans. It goes along perfectly with the vegan lifestyle I'm working on!

Knowledge everyone should have.

Very informative. Made me and my family better eaters and cooks. Thid diet got me off my asthma medication. I normally don't believe the hype and getting off medication was not even a goal. See for yourself. This may be one of the most important books I've ever read in terms of influencing my health.

fantastic information, powerful

I learned about this book while waiting at my doctor's office. I purchased the hard copy but struggled to finish it due to time constraints. the audio book is fantastic and is a wealth of information. I do recommend the hard copy for the charts and graphs and meal plan. it is a book that every American should read. my apologies for the spelling this is a voice to text review.
