The Whole Foods Diet

The Lifesaving Plan for Health and Longevity

De: John Mackey, Alona Pulde MD MD, Matthew Lederman MD MD

Narrado por: Dan Woren

The definitive guide to the optimum diet for health and wellness, from the founder of Whole Foods Market and the doctors of Forks Over Knives.

The Whole Foods Diet simplifies the huge body of science, research, and advice that is available today and reveals the undeniable consensus: a whole foods, plant-based diet is the optimum diet for health and longevity. Standing on the shoulders of the Whole Foods Market brand and featuring an accessible 28-day program, delicious recipes, inspirational success stories, and a guilt-free approach to plant-based eating, The Whole Foods Diet is a life-affirming invitation to become a Whole Foodie: someone who loves to eat, loves to live, and loves to nourish themselves with nature's bounty. If Whole Foods Market is "shorthand for a food revolution" (The New Yorker), then The Whole Foods Diet will give that revolution its bible - the unequivocal truth about what to eat for a long, healthy, disease-free life.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Evangelical and passionate, Mackey, cofounder of Whole Foods Market, along with Pulde and Lederman (co-authors of The Forks Over Knives Diet), reaches beyond the typical diet plan tenets of eating right to feel better and lose weight; this plan is expressly intended to help save and extend lives."—Publisher's Weekly

Good, Comprehensive Overview

I would highly recommend this to someone who loves food and is looking to use it as a blueprint for food as medicine.

We've all heard the warnings about our health and the narrow-minded viewpoints of groups who like to target one particular type of food or one component of foods and eliminate those as a "quick fix". I love that this book avoids that whole narrative and instead gives a comprehensive overview of how food affects multiple facets of our health, concerning longevity, weight, overall mood, disease, etc. Written by the CEO for Whole Foods, there was significant mention of the store, but it is not portrayed as an advertisement for the store. There is also significant mention of scientific evidence, studies, and cultures around the globe that have proven the benefits of this type of lifestyle. I am excited to try it out!

very interesting

I learned at... I've read some of the other whole foodies books but I like how this one has messages from all of them and I also like the "read this: learn more " after each one.

Normal to Fit & Feeling Amazing at 48

What did you love best about The Whole Foods Diet?

I love love love this book. I've played with going Vegan or Vegetarian for years but never stuck with it. This is the first book to change my thinking on food. It's difficult trying to figure out what is REALLY good for us and what is not. This book simplifies the difference between what are healthy whole foods and what are processed foods. I spend less money, eat healthy whole foods, have more energy, and eat all day. It makes perfect sense to me now and I feel better than ever at 48 yr old.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Whole Foods Diet?

The information on the 8 Essential Foods to eat everyday.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Relieved that I do NOT have to get protein from an animal. Excited to learn how to eat legumes, fruits, vegetables, and 1300+ Vegan plant based foods.

Any additional comments?

I found out about this book from an Interview John Mackey (Whole Foods founder) did with the "Mind Body Green" podcast. Highly recommend listening to this interview.

My Favorite

I've read alot on the subject, but this is the one I've been serching for. I started over right after I finished....

Bruh ... this was phenomenal

I’ve read all the plant based books on the market (well, a lot not all) and this is easily in my top 2 ! Extra moly doable, practical and life changing. The PDF included is very helpful as well
