Publisher's summary

Why do some of us get sick with greater frequency than others? What makes us more susceptible to illness? Are we doomed to get sick when our coworkers and family members do? Is there a secret to staying healthy?

Joel Fuhrman, M.D., a leading expert and board-certified medical specialist in prevention and reversing disease, offers a comprehensive guide to superior health.

Based on the latest scientific research, Super Immunity shows us how we can become almost totally resistant to colds, influenza, and other infections.

The evidence is overwhelming: we can supercharge our immune system to protect our bodies against disease - everything from the common cold to cancer. Nutritional science has made phenomenal strides and discoveries in recent years, and when this new research is applied it enables us to seize control of our health like never before. Dr. Fuhrman explains this new science, providing everything you need to know to put this knowledge into action in your kitchen and in your life.

What we eat has everything to do with our health, and, unfortunately, too many of us are living with a severely depleted immune function. Our dietary choices are making us sicker, shortening our lives, and costing us billions of dollars in doctor visits, hospital stays, and prescription medications. But Dr. Fuhrman doesn’t believe more medical care is the answer. Rather, he explains the solution is to change the way we eat. The standard American diet is nutrient deficient. We are eating too many highly processed foods, foods with added sweeteners, and animal fats and protein. At the same time, we are not eating enough fruits, beans, seeds, and vegetables, which leaves us lacking in hundreds of the most important immune-building compounds. By changing our diets and combining foods that contain powerful immune-strengthening capabilities, we can prevent most common modern diseases.

Combining the latest data from clinical tests, nutritional research, and results from thousands of patients, Dr. Fuhrman proves that super immunity exists and is well within reach for those who choose it. We all have the ability to live healthier, stronger, and longer than ever before. Isn’t it time you discovered super immunity?

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

No PDF material or recipes are available for audible edition

No PFF is available for audible edition which is very disappointing as the book refers to graphs and charts from it. The same goes for recipes which we as audible listeners do not get.

My Doctors were amazed 👏🏿

Life-saving book (and pdf is here)

The pdf is available above, just under the Publisher's Summary where it says, "Download the accompanying reference guide".

Dr. Fuhrman is a national treasure. I, my husband, and many of our friends and family have had health issues cured by following Dr. Fuhrman's sensible, logical, and scientifically sound recommendations. These issues include depression, psoriasis, allergies, high cholesterol, weight issues, and high blood pressure.

We now eat the way Dr. Fuhrman recommends because it is easy and delicious. We will never stop eating this way because we are not willing to give up our new found health and energy. Good health and vitality are the body's natural state when you give it the nutrients it needs to thrive.

Essential Reading

Extremely helpful in understanding how our foods affect our body’s immunity! I highly recommend this book! I listened to the audible book (at 1.5 speed) while reading on the kindle (I find I retain more this way). The book is 60% reading material followed by menus and recipes to help you get started eating the “Nutritarian” diet. I’m already a Nutritarian and would recommend this book to anyone concerned about their health, whether you have a health concern/condition or not. Eating a Nutritarian diet has helped me tremendously and is a very enjoyable way to eat! Thanks to Dr. Joel Fuhrman for this excellent book!

Great Information

I have listened to this book 5 times now. The book is packed with great information, so much, in fact, that I have had to listen multiple times to take it all in. Every chapter contains life changing (for the better) information, from food specific facts, to antibiotics, to disease fighting info, this book has it all. Whenever I find myself turning to processed foods, I open the PDF and make Dr. Fuhrmans Tomatoe Bisque soup, it is delicious and filling! And I never geel bad about "over" eating these nutritarian recipes because I know they won't make me fat or unhealthy. My 4 year old and 6 year old eat The Black Bean Brownies every morning for breakfast. I tell them it's chocolate fudge and they DON'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE. Thanks Dr. F!

With many recipe

What did you like best about this story?

This book describes about how to get immunity against communicable and non communicable diseases like cancer. The best thing I got to know through this book is folic acid differs from folate itself. I've not distinguished them, honestly. Folic acid intake may cause carcinogenesis!Besides, we can acquire some pieces of knowledge very useful.I recommend this book anyone who concerns about nutrition preventing diseases like cancer.

What about Ned Sparrow’s performance did you like?

The performance of Ned Sparrow is very good and easy to listen. His voice is comfortable.

Any additional comments?

The PDF contains a huge number of recipes. We can try the super immunity menu for 2 weeks!
