Proteinaholic: How Our Obsession with Meat Is Killing Us and What We Can Do About It

I loved this book! And I have to say thank you for all of the scientific research that backs up all the facts when it comes down to plant based nutrition!! I am a 2x Pro Vegan Bodybuilder, Master Fitness Trainer, and Health Coach and this book has given me more knowledge to spread and teach to all of my clients and the world when I do public speaking events!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Finally, some facts you can use and share. I appreciate the deep delve into Atkins, Pritikin and other food movements and their founders (including their autopsy results). Also, mind blowing was the recommended levels of protein vs. what is consumed, and how some athletic trainers can miscalculate for clients the amount of protein needed.

While the comparison between the omnivore vs. carnivore digestive system was familiar, the way that the information was presented kept me engaged the entire time. Lastly, the narrator was fantastic.

I have been triathlon training for 5 months now and haven't lost any weight. I tried to pack the animal protein thinking that would help me "build muscle" but I found that I had a huge struggle in gaining muscle and loosing weight. I did the green smoothy cleanse and it really helped my body feel like I gained clean energy. I definitely had to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables to feel full. I liked how he backed up his theories with several studies and self experience. definitely recommending this book!

Loved it. Every line of it. This was the mudge I needed to go fully plant based and oil free. That was it! Exactly 10 days ago I started it. Not looking back. Energy levels are up, exercise level is up, I am eating a lot, never hungry, and feeling amazing. I want the whole world to know this. Eat plants, heal your body.

The author dos a good job of scientifically and systematically demonstrating why our beliefs about protein loading our diets are incorrect and even dangerous. He's not stuffy or pedantic and peppers the narration with occasional humor. Enjoyable and informative listen.

the author made his case in an easy to understand and effective presentation of the subject.

He didn't play with the subject matter but made definitive argument against consuming meat if you want to avoid heart disease etc

to much to absorb in one sitting

When I downloaded this book I did not expect to be convinced on his position. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this book. I download and listen to almost all of the books on audio on this subject so I had a lot to compare it with. It was very enlightening.

The author thinks he is god. He trashed out leading medical professionals that are a lot smarter and thoughtful than he is. Don't eat too much protein. OK this needs to be heard but two other books are much more balanced, and they explain how to make sure you stay healthy on whole foods, mostly plant based diet: 1. The New Primal Blueprint by Mark Sisson, and the 2. Primal Fat Burner by Nora Gedgaudas.

Narration was fine.

The book.

I finished this book and suffered with almost every word. He sounded reasonable at the beginning. He does not know about balanced research, how to read nutritional research and how different people have different genetic requirements. We are not all the same.

I suffered greatly on his vegetarian diet. When I changed to a mostly plants, healthy fats, small amount of wild caught salmon and grass fed organic meat (meat as a condiment) and no grain, no corn, no processed food and became totally healthy with trig of 44 (over 400 on his diet) and fasting bld sugar of 84 (in the diabetic range on his diet). Plus when I went off his vegetarian diet, I lost 60 lbs and I am now in the normal weight range and do not have any food cravings.

I went on his vegetarian diet to be healthy and lost my health. It is not about one size fits all.

I started eating vegan while listening to this book and have loss 20lbs, exercising daily and trying to recruit others. Thank you Dr

I'll suggest other readings to balance author's opinion. Carbs avoidance not necessary means fruit and vegetables, some times it's as simple as processed grains avoidance. And meat it's not only eaten for the purpose of proteins. Like it or not, we are omnivores and that requires balance approach to nutrition.

another amazing book that describes how animal protein is killing us. I plan on re-reading this one seberal times. I recommend to all for a good read or listen.
