I wish everyone would read this book

Very well written. A whole-food, plant-based eating is not a fad diet. It has been scientifically proven to be the healthiest diet for humans. Unfortunately we have been misled our whole lives about nutrition.

Awesome Book on Whole Food Plant-based Eating!!!

Anyone (especially African Americans) desiring optimum health should read this book. It is full of excellent advice on the benefits of eating Whole Food Plant-based. Q

This is a great book!

This very interesting book is very well written and the audiobook is very well read!

Oh my God!

I have utterly enjoyed this book!! So much so, that my journey will start sooner than I anticipated. It was very well done and user friendly! Changing to move forward starts right away! It encourages me to know how important I am, not just my health alone. But that I am not alone! Thank you for presenting it in such away, that I feel like I deserve this journey for myself!! It’s an awesome book, I will share it every chance I get!

Totally enjoyed

This was eye opening. I’ve dabbled over the years with wanting to try a Vegan lifestyle however like the other Diet’s tried, I have failed. I’m at a place now where my life matters and I’m need to make a change for myself and not anyone or for any other reason thank for me.
Thank you!
