Publisher's summary

Want your kid to be able to eat whatever they want without ever worrying about their weight? With Food Ninjas: How to Raise Your Kids to Be Lean, Mean, Eating Machines, this reality is just a small step away.

In a world full of increasing paranoia about the food we eat and health - obsessed parents imposing more and more bizarre dietary restrictions on their children, Food Ninjas provides the swift kick in the pants that many health fanatical parents need.

Food Ninjas is THE roadmap for raising your children to be the "lucky" ones who can eat whatever they want, whenever they want, and be lean and healthy as a result.

Think your kid needs to eat a bunch of vegetables? Think your kid will become a raging diabetic if he is allowed to consume as much cake, candy, and Coca Cola as he desires? Think your kid will be healthier if you raise her only on whole foods? Wrong, wrong, wrong.

All creatures, humans included, come hardwired with powerful regulatory mechanisms with million-year track records of success. Children come programmed with all the instincts they could ever need to manage their body fat levels, energy levels, fluid intake, and much more - even while eating a modern diet. As a parent, the biggest mistake you can make is to INTERFERE.

Food Ninjas is about stepping out of the way and allowing a child to develop a healthy relationship with food, an optimal metabolic rate, and eat and drink based on internal, instinctual cues. Those internal cues can be trusted.

After listening to Food Ninjas, you will no longer have to control, bribe, struggle, or fight your children to eat this or eat that.

Food Ninjas is the answer for how kids and adults alike can eat in the most casual, intuitive, and carefree way as possible with excellent health to go along with it.

What does Matt Stone bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

His personality comes through a little more, as well as that slight Nashville twang.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The part where he used a feminine sounding voice to read an excerpt from a book written by a woman.

Any additional comments?

I have read other reviews where people criticize Matt for his sometimes adolescent humor and informal writing style. Depending on your personality, you will love that or hate it, but however you feel about it, don't let it dissuade you from reading his books. I have found the information invaluable for my own health and eating habits and for my family.
