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?

BEST NUTRITIONAL ADVICE EVER!!!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

YES!!! This vital information EVERYONE should know and practice.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Dr. Fuhrman is my favorite Dr. and mentor

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

No, this is the 1st time.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES!!!

Worth a read

The book includes a thorough review of scientific information to support the adoption of a mostly vegetarian diet emphasizing green vegetables, berries, beans, onions, mushrooms, etc. and very few animal products in order to optimize our immune systems. It can be a tough sell to those who are used to the standard American diet, but in a season featuring widespread flu and a Coronavirus outbreak, I found the science presented in the book convincing enough to greatly increase my daily vegetable intake and plan healthier meals moving forward. The narrator and overall production quality were just fair, but overall I would recommend this book to anyone looking to understand ways in which diet can have an impact on the immune system.

Can you say el-uh-kyoo-shuh-n?

What made the experience of listening to Super Immunity the most enjoyable?

I am a fan of Dr. Fuhrman's and the information in this book is timely, valuable, intelligent and well researched. I agreed with much that he had to say and I was enlightened by much that I was unaware of. I would suggest it in written form for any nutrition conscious person or professional - - this form, this narrator, not so much.

What didn’t you like about Ned Sparrow’s performance?

Ohhhhh My God! I had a very hard time listening to Mr. Sparrow and often had to either laugh or turn it off. He mis-pronounced so many, many words and his timing and delivery are much lacking. His delivery left the impression that this may have been his first time reading ANYTHING out loud. It was entirely distracting. I had to go back and listen to parts two and three times because I couldn't figure out what words he was using, which was a singular torture on its own. Ugh! Definitely time for a new narrator

Life Altering!

Changed my life...likely will add 10 maybe more of enjoyable living...working on which grocer is best.

Extraordinario libro para sanar

Yo soy Homeopata y estoy de acuerdo con todo lo que nos enseña el dr. Hasta lo que dice de la Homeopatia ya que los productos que venden en farmacias no son homeopáticos tal cual.

Si a estos cambios de dieta, hiciéramos cambios mentales y usáramos homeopatía crearíamos una nueva especie humana.

Yo ya estoy haciéndolo

Amazing!

I love Joel Fuhrman and all his books. This diet really works! Try it and you'll see :)

So much great information!

Easy to listen to. Love Dr Fuhrman's books! Although I do wish it was narrated by Dr Fuhrman.

The book it self was good

Good book but could not download the recipes. That is part of it. Thank you.
